AKA: ParanĂ´maru akutibiti: Dai-2-sho
Director:Toshikazu Nagae
Premise:
A women returns from the US with broken legs due to a car accident. Her brother stays at home to help her recover while their father works out of country. Soon the two discover that she may have brought something else back from America with her.
My Take:
It's a Japanese version of the American movie which does tie in to the series. While it does manage to tell a different and interesting story from the US version. It's not quite a remake and it's not quite a sequel. It has creepy moments, especially the last act, but ultimately the scares dont hold up.
Rating: In the middle

Proud to admit that I am a horror junkie. However, my definition of what falls under the realm of horror entertainment is fairly wide. Horror is an emotion experienced differently by individuals. These are short reviews of the movies, television series, novels, comics, albums, and any thing else which crosses my path if I feel like falls into the wide world of horror entertainment.
