1
00:00:03,678 --> 00:00:06,670
“The names of persons and
organizations in this film"

2
00:00:06,814 --> 00:00:09,977
"has been partially changed."

3
00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:16,884
"Produced by Taka Ichise"

4
00:00:19,727 --> 00:00:23,754
"Directed by Koji Shiraishi"

5
00:00:29,570 --> 00:00:35,668
This video documentary is considered to be
too disruptive to the public.

6
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:43,343
These are books written by
Masafumi Kobayashi, journalist

7
00:00:43,551 --> 00:00:49,353
which had chronicled
supernatural phenomena since 1995.

8
00:00:51,092 --> 00:00:54,550
He collected accounts
of strange happenings...

9
00:00:54,695 --> 00:00:58,722
in his pursuit of terrifying and
unsolvable mysteries.

10
00:01:00,601 --> 00:01:04,037
When he had started using video
in his research

11
00:01:04,205 --> 00:01:08,232
he was able to compile his research
on to videotape.

12
00:01:09,844 --> 00:01:11,072
That bomb shelter?

13
00:01:11,212 --> 00:01:13,407
Yes. It's in there.

14
00:01:17,118 --> 00:01:19,086
I saw it over there.

15
00:01:19,353 --> 00:01:23,221
It runs in the forest very fast

16
00:01:23,724 --> 00:01:27,660
This is where you saw the ghost…

17
00:01:27,795 --> 00:01:28,727
Was it suicide?

18
00:01:28,863 --> 00:01:32,196
Yes. I saw him in the screen mirror.

19
00:01:34,702 --> 00:01:36,033
It is here...

20
00:01:36,170 --> 00:01:40,732
a family of five was massacred.

21
00:01:44,044 --> 00:01:47,639
In April 2004...

22
00:01:48,115 --> 00:01:50,777
Kobayashi finished his latest…

23
00:01:50,918 --> 00:01:52,943
video documentary, "The Curse".

24
00:01:53,187 --> 00:01:54,654
This must be related.

25
00:01:56,123 --> 00:01:58,887
But soon after that…

26
00:02:02,630 --> 00:02:07,897
On the night of April 12,
Kobayashi's house burned down.

27
00:02:22,516 --> 00:02:26,748
Later, his wife Keiko was found dead
in the remains.

28
00:02:28,656 --> 00:02:33,059
But Kobayashi was not found.
He was declared missing.

29
00:02:35,329 --> 00:02:38,924
Masafumi Kobayashi
had mysteriously disappeared.

30
00:02:40,267 --> 00:02:43,134
His video, "The Curse"…

31
00:02:43,771 --> 00:02:48,208
reveals an all too startling truth
for us to imagine.

32
00:03:20,207 --> 00:03:23,074
"I want the truth."

33
00:03:23,210 --> 00:03:26,202
“No matter how scary it is
I want the truth.”

34
00:03:26,514 --> 00:03:30,382
"Masafumi Kobayashi."

35
00:03:45,766 --> 00:03:51,864
"November 12, 2002, Koganei, Tokyo"

36
00:03:55,342 --> 00:03:59,108
"Masafumi Kobayashi,
reporter of the supernatural."

37
00:04:01,415 --> 00:04:06,682
The scary voices you mentioned…
What were those voices?

38
00:04:07,721 --> 00:04:11,657
It sounded like baby voices.

39
00:04:11,792 --> 00:04:13,589
Baby voices...

40
00:04:13,861 --> 00:04:15,852
"Ryoko Okui, Housewife"

41
00:04:15,996 --> 00:04:18,191
When did it start?

42
00:04:19,533 --> 00:04:22,468
A couple of months ago.

43
00:04:29,543 --> 00:04:32,706
The sound is coming from there.

44
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,815
Who lives next door?

45
00:04:36,016 --> 00:04:42,046
A woman in her 40s and her boy,
between 6 and 9 years.

46
00:04:42,189 --> 00:04:43,656
There are two of them.

47
00:04:43,924 --> 00:04:48,361
They moved in about six months ago.

48
00:04:48,495 --> 00:04:52,192
That was the only time
I saw the boy.

49
00:04:52,333 --> 00:04:54,733
I haven't seen him since.

50
00:04:55,269 --> 00:05:00,366
I see the mother from time to time
when she goes out.

51
00:05:00,507 --> 00:05:02,532
But she doesn't greet me.

52
00:05:03,510 --> 00:05:08,174
I'm a little scared. I don't want to
my girlfriend is involved too.

53
00:05:11,652 --> 00:05:13,677
Let's go to the neighbor.

54
00:05:26,834 --> 00:05:27,926
Let's go inside.

55
00:05:31,739 --> 00:05:33,331
What a mess!

56
00:05:38,712 --> 00:05:40,077
Hello?

57
00:05:42,383 --> 00:05:43,816
Anyone at home?

58
00:05:54,495 --> 00:05:59,990
I happened to be in the neighborhood
do some research and…

59
00:06:00,134 --> 00:06:02,261
What kind of way is that?
to talk to me?

60
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:10,137
How can you talk to me like that?

61
00:06:10,477 --> 00:06:13,969
Can I have a few minutes?
of your time...

62
00:06:14,114 --> 00:06:15,411
How can you?

63
00:06:15,883 --> 00:06:19,080
My name is Kobayashi and...

64
00:06:24,825 --> 00:06:25,985
Impossible.

65
00:06:32,166 --> 00:06:33,690
Give me a break.

66
00:06:57,424 --> 00:07:00,689
“The strange sound was recorded
on videotape."

67
00:07:03,864 --> 00:07:05,331
Let's begin.

68
00:07:08,635 --> 00:07:12,901
Can you tell us what the sound is
analysis revealed?

69
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:14,302
Okay.

70
00:07:15,075 --> 00:07:18,408
We have the spectrographic analysis
of the sound.

71
00:07:18,612 --> 00:07:22,048
It has a soundtrack
all the way through it.

72
00:07:22,182 --> 00:07:25,413
But here there is a unique signal.

73
00:07:25,819 --> 00:07:28,720
I'll play it back for comparison.

74
00:07:28,889 --> 00:07:34,486
"The raw audio signal."

75
00:07:36,296 --> 00:07:38,389
This one is noise reduced.

76
00:07:38,632 --> 00:07:45,060
"The processed audio signal."

77
00:07:45,873 --> 00:07:50,833
As you hear, it is like
some kind of animal noise.

78
00:07:52,946 --> 00:07:54,743
I have improved the signal.

79
00:07:55,382 --> 00:07:56,906
Listen carefully.

80
00:08:02,489 --> 00:08:08,086
A cat meows sequentially
but this sound is not like that.

81
00:08:08,228 --> 00:08:12,096
What is interesting about
this sound is…

82
00:08:12,599 --> 00:08:17,866
that it does not repeat like a cat's
well, it ends with an inhalation.

83
00:08:18,071 --> 00:08:21,472
That is what characterizes
a human baby voice.

84
00:08:21,608 --> 00:08:23,769
Upon closer inspection

85
00:08:23,911 --> 00:08:29,816
it sounds like the votes for
more than 5 children.

86
00:08:33,287 --> 00:08:36,381
Several days after your visit...

87
00:08:36,523 --> 00:08:41,119
they moved out of that house.

88
00:08:41,662 --> 00:08:45,325
What? Did they move out?

89
00:08:45,532 --> 00:08:49,525
What about the strange voices?

90
00:08:49,670 --> 00:08:52,138
Still hearing baby voices?

91
00:08:52,472 --> 00:08:57,341
Not since they moved out.

92
00:09:20,968 --> 00:09:25,667
So her name is Junko Ishii.

93
00:09:41,221 --> 00:09:44,213
Come here, Miyajima!

94
00:10:07,581 --> 00:10:09,344
Excuse us now.

95
00:10:23,730 --> 00:10:27,496
They died 5 days later.

96
00:10:29,770 --> 00:10:36,141
Mrs. Okui lost control of his car
when she was driving.

97
00:10:36,877 --> 00:10:40,779
The car went over the divider
into the incoming traffic…

98
00:10:53,327 --> 00:10:57,161
"Pictures from a TV show,
aired on August 3, 2003"

99
00:10:57,464 --> 00:10:59,227
Good evening, everyone!

100
00:10:59,399 --> 00:11:00,627
Good evening.

101
00:11:00,767 --> 00:11:02,064
Very good, everyone.

102
00:11:02,202 --> 00:11:04,500
Let me introduce you to

103
00:11:04,638 --> 00:11:07,471
Mr. Koichi Hirotsu, the psychic.

104
00:11:07,607 --> 00:11:09,734
Thank you very much.

105
00:11:09,876 --> 00:11:13,175
Can you tell us
how is the experiment progressing?

106
00:11:13,313 --> 00:11:19,912
The first experiment is about
with clairvoyance.

107
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:22,788
"Experiment 1, Clairvoyance"

108
00:11:23,357 --> 00:11:25,518
In each of these containers

109
00:11:25,659 --> 00:11:28,457
there is a paper.

110
00:11:28,595 --> 00:11:30,586
It has a drawing on it.

111
00:11:30,731 --> 00:11:33,859
I want you to imagine what is drawn.

112
00:11:34,001 --> 00:11:36,026
"First Question"

113
00:11:37,304 --> 00:11:40,273
10 children with ESP abilities
from all over Japan.

114
00:11:40,540 --> 00:11:42,974
We are about to witness their powers!

115
00:11:44,177 --> 00:11:46,839
They all look a little nervous.

116
00:11:51,018 --> 00:11:55,717
Everyone, concentrate here.

117
00:11:55,889 --> 00:11:59,120
Try to imagine the newspaper
in the container.

118
00:11:59,259 --> 00:12:02,786
You will get a vision in your head.

119
00:12:03,263 --> 00:12:06,494
None of us know...

120
00:12:06,633 --> 00:12:08,794
what is drawn on the paper.

121
00:12:17,844 --> 00:12:21,837
One of them starts
to draw what she sees.

122
00:12:21,982 --> 00:12:25,816
“One of them starts
to draw what she sees"

123
00:12:28,455 --> 00:12:29,479
Can she really see it?

124
00:12:29,623 --> 00:12:33,457
Let's open the container

125
00:12:33,593 --> 00:12:35,458
and take a look at the newspaper.

126
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:41,262
What is in the newspaper?

127
00:12:44,171 --> 00:12:47,629
The answer is a double circle.

128
00:12:47,808 --> 00:12:50,072
But not just a double circle.

129
00:12:50,210 --> 00:12:54,544
Each circle has two points

130
00:12:54,681 --> 00:12:57,047
where the line is broken.

131
00:12:57,184 --> 00:12:59,175
It is a complicated form.

132
00:12:59,352 --> 00:13:00,614
Did anyone get it right?

133
00:13:01,088 --> 00:13:03,056
"Results"

134
00:13:06,159 --> 00:13:09,617
You there...

135
00:13:09,830 --> 00:13:11,354
She got it right!

136
00:13:11,832 --> 00:13:13,265
Kana Yano

137
00:13:13,633 --> 00:13:15,624
can you show us what you drew?

138
00:13:17,904 --> 00:13:20,429
Take a good look, everyone.

139
00:13:20,974 --> 00:13:25,707
It is drawn with extreme accuracy.

140
00:13:28,482 --> 00:13:30,950
The scale is also correct.

141
00:13:31,084 --> 00:13:34,053
This is incredible!

142
00:13:35,222 --> 00:13:36,382
Kana Yano...

143
00:13:36,523 --> 00:13:39,219
She gave the correct answer to

144
00:13:39,359 --> 00:13:41,987
all questions up to 4.

145
00:13:42,896 --> 00:13:44,625
"The Fifth Question"

146
00:13:44,898 --> 00:13:48,425
Will Kana give a correct answer
to the fifth question as well?

147
00:13:52,973 --> 00:13:57,069
Kana has already drawn something.

148
00:13:59,112 --> 00:14:01,137
"Results"

149
00:14:01,348 --> 00:14:04,283
Show us what you got, everyone.

150
00:14:10,657 --> 00:14:14,650
The answer to the question
looks like this.

151
00:14:14,794 --> 00:14:16,284
It is completely different.

152
00:14:16,763 --> 00:14:19,789
"It means star in Russian"

153
00:14:23,170 --> 00:14:26,105
I guess this one was hard.

154
00:14:26,239 --> 00:14:27,934
She might be tired.

155
00:14:28,175 --> 00:14:33,875
Next, we will make water materialize
in sealed bottles.

156
00:14:35,282 --> 00:14:38,012
It is called materialization.

157
00:14:38,485 --> 00:14:44,481
It is done through telekinetic
imagine water in the bottle.

158
00:14:44,925 --> 00:14:46,517
Let's do it.

159
00:14:48,295 --> 00:14:50,763
"Start Experiment"

160
00:14:54,167 --> 00:14:57,898
This requires intense concentration.

161
00:14:58,038 --> 00:14:59,528
And now…

162
00:15:00,941 --> 00:15:05,037
you are about to witness a miracle
performed by Kana!

163
00:15:06,546 --> 00:15:10,414
Kana fetching some water!

164
00:15:11,117 --> 00:15:15,417
Can you see it?

165
00:15:15,555 --> 00:15:19,218
At the bottom of the bottle...
the water gathers from nowhere!

166
00:15:22,028 --> 00:15:27,864
Of course, there is no false bottom
on the bottle, nor on the table.

167
00:15:28,001 --> 00:15:29,559
It's the same girl again.

168
00:15:35,875 --> 00:15:36,933
What were you thinking?

169
00:15:37,244 --> 00:15:38,643
when did you do this?

170
00:15:39,479 --> 00:15:41,709
I thought about water.

171
00:15:41,881 --> 00:15:44,076
When the water materialized…

172
00:15:44,251 --> 00:15:47,618
did you feel anything different?

173
00:15:47,754 --> 00:15:49,278
Were you hot or stiff?

174
00:15:49,456 --> 00:15:51,287
I had a headache.

175
00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:54,920
My God!

176
00:15:55,395 --> 00:15:57,590
What is this?

177
00:15:57,831 --> 00:15:59,662
Any kind of hair?

178
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:05,433
Yes. I guess she made it happen
along with the water.

179
00:16:06,473 --> 00:16:11,103
How mysterious it was
appeared in the bottle?

180
00:16:11,411 --> 00:16:15,438
Tests done on the water
which Kana produced, has entered.

181
00:16:15,582 --> 00:16:17,550
"Professor Takaaki Yuhara, DSc"

182
00:16:18,218 --> 00:16:20,413
The main component is water.

183
00:16:21,087 --> 00:16:24,989
We found zooplankton
which suggests that

184
00:16:25,125 --> 00:16:30,495
it is fresh water from both
a river or a lake.

185
00:16:30,897 --> 00:16:36,130
The hair in the water is
truly an animal's.

186
00:16:36,336 --> 00:16:41,638
It may be human hair, but therefore
there is no medullary development…

187
00:16:41,775 --> 00:16:45,233
it could be from a newborn baby.

Kana's parents."

190
00:17:02,996 --> 00:17:03,963
Hello.

191
00:17:04,431 --> 00:17:05,625
Thank you for coming.

192
00:17:06,366 --> 00:17:09,392
Has she slept all day?

193
00:17:10,303 --> 00:17:12,601
Then after lunch.

194

"Kana Yano,
the psychic who appeared on TV."

195
00:17:16,810 --> 00:17:22,339
She has had a slight fever
since these television experiments.

196
00:17:22,582 --> 00:17:26,279
She has spent a lot of time
in bed, resting.

197
00:17:26,686 --> 00:17:32,852
We took her to the doctor though
he could find no fault.

198
00:17:33,193 --> 00:17:35,821
We are very worried about her.

199
00:17:36,229 --> 00:17:42,896
I thought the program was pushing
the kids too much…

200
00:17:43,169 --> 00:17:44,898
Too many experiments.

201
00:17:45,038 --> 00:17:51,409
I wonder if she is exhausted
her powers at that one time…

Hello, we are Ungirls.

204
00:18:02,756 --> 00:18:07,420
We are so popular that
ants crawl up our legs in the park.

206
00:18:10,163 --> 00:18:14,725
I'm so tall that
I have to hold the coffin myself.

We are Ungirls.

208
00:18:16,469 --> 00:18:22,066
We are on our way to a shrine,
a popular place for ghosts.

209
00:18:22,208 --> 00:18:26,269
It was considered boring
it was just the two of us.

210
00:18:26,413 --> 00:18:28,745
So we have the actress
Marika Matsumoto here too.

211
00:18:28,915 --> 00:18:32,510
Good evening. My name is Marika Matsumoto.

212
00:18:32,652 --> 00:18:35,086
I heard you have a sixth sense.

213
00:18:35,221 --> 00:18:36,586
That's right.

214
00:18:36,923 --> 00:18:40,017
Have you ever had any
supernatural experiences?

215
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,958
Yes. Ever since I was a child…

216
00:18:43,096 --> 00:18:44,324
So long?

217
00:18:44,497 --> 00:18:46,192
Yes. I have seen apparitions.

218
00:18:47,100 --> 00:18:48,465
Are you okay, Marika?

219
00:18:49,068 --> 00:18:53,266
I don't know...
It tingles in the neck.

220
00:18:53,807 --> 00:18:56,105
Are you feeling cranky?

221
00:18:56,743 --> 00:18:57,971
i'm scared...

222
00:18:58,111 --> 00:19:00,136
Maybe we shouldn't go in there?

223
00:19:00,413 --> 00:19:04,076
But that's what we're here for,
so we go in.

224
00:19:06,386 --> 00:19:08,115
Here we are!

225
00:19:09,789 --> 00:19:10,915
Do you want to enter?

226
00:19:13,026 --> 00:19:14,618
It's scary...

227
00:19:15,895 --> 00:19:20,628
Guys! I feel that something is over
in that direction.

228
00:19:22,035 --> 00:19:24,560
I feel something really strange...

229
00:19:25,104 --> 00:19:26,298
This way.

230
00:19:26,706 --> 00:19:28,071
We should stay here.

231
00:19:28,208 --> 00:19:30,005
Let's all go in together.

232
00:19:31,211 --> 00:19:33,236
It feels very strange...

233
00:19:35,748 --> 00:19:37,010
But there is nothing here.

234
00:19:37,150 --> 00:19:40,210
Maybe this is... Yes, it is.

235
00:19:40,353 --> 00:19:42,947
Can you bring the camera here?

236
00:19:44,023 --> 00:19:46,890
Only these trees are dead.

237
00:19:47,494 --> 00:19:49,894
Everywhere else the trees are okay.

238
00:19:50,163 --> 00:19:51,824
They are okay there too.

239
00:19:52,098 --> 00:19:54,760
Only here, they are dead.

240
00:19:55,301 --> 00:19:58,134
Look at this tree. So lumpy.

241
00:19:58,538 --> 00:20:02,531
Yup...
It's dripping with something sticky.

242
00:20:03,376 --> 00:20:06,345
What is this?
Does it ooze from the tree?

243
00:20:06,546 --> 00:20:07,979
No! Don't touch it!

244
00:20:08,748 --> 00:20:13,185
I mean it. Hold back...

245
00:20:13,653 --> 00:20:14,984
Is it bad?

246
00:20:18,391 --> 00:20:19,688
Crap!

247
00:20:20,894 --> 00:20:22,191

248
00:20:26,132 --> 00:20:27,861
I heard something...

249
00:20:28,001 --> 00:20:29,229
Did you hear that?

250
00:20:29,369 --> 00:20:30,768
Did I do it? I didn't hear anything...

251
00:20:30,937 --> 00:20:35,874
Something... it was a low voice,
like a man's.

252
00:20:36,009 --> 00:20:37,306
A man's voice?

253
00:20:37,443 --> 00:20:39,638
Was that you?

254
00:20:40,947 --> 00:20:44,041
I've had enough of this.

255
00:20:48,988 --> 00:20:53,584

Wasn't that something special?

259
00:21:36,135 --> 00:21:39,730
It was incredible. I was blown away.

260
00:21:40,006 --> 00:21:42,304
How do you feel now, Marika?

261
00:21:42,842 --> 00:21:45,470
I feel embarrassed.

262
00:21:46,446 --> 00:21:49,904
So this video was edited out?

263
00:21:50,083 --> 00:21:56,784
That's right. The director arranged
for me to have a copy.

264
00:21:56,923 --> 00:22:03,123
In the movie you said you could
hear a man's voice.

265
00:22:03,463 --> 00:22:06,489
It was a very low voice.

266
00:22:08,601 --> 00:22:12,264
It sounded like it was calling me.

267
00:22:12,438 --> 00:22:16,636
Did you see me turn?
when I heard the voice?

268
00:22:17,944 --> 00:22:21,675
I don't remember anything
from that point on.

269
00:22:21,814 --> 00:22:23,748
Nothing at all?

Let's hear it for him!

Calm down, he's our guest.

276
00:23:06,793 --> 00:23:12,322
Our guest has arrived
an outfit that is very different.

277
00:23:12,598 --> 00:23:16,762

Come here.

give us your impression of Marika.

at the door.

follow his thoughts…

Hey, let her go.

I edited something out.

these images unconsciously.

these patterns?

- Yes!

00:30:10,049 --> 00:30:15,487
I saw him several times
throw away the trash...

362
00:30:16,822 --> 00:30:17,789
He's a fucking psychopath.

363
00:30:17,923 --> 00:30:19,288
He cannot be cured.

364
00:30:21,127 --> 00:30:23,652
So he's a fucking psychopath.

365
00:30:28,567 --> 00:30:30,034
Is this it?

366
00:30:36,775 --> 00:30:40,871
"Strange messages on the garbage"

367
00:30:42,715 --> 00:30:46,879
Hello! Is the super psychic home?

368
00:30:54,693 --> 00:30:57,856
Are you super psychic?

369
00:31:06,772 --> 00:31:11,038
Mitsuo Hori...

370
00:31:13,946 --> 00:31:15,208
I can do that.

371
00:31:17,449 --> 00:31:19,110
I am psychic.

372
00:31:20,452 --> 00:31:25,412
Can I interview you?

373
00:31:34,633 --> 00:31:37,602
Is that okay?

374
00:31:39,438 --> 00:31:41,770
I'm coming in.

375
00:31:44,143 --> 00:31:48,170
Can you see this?
We have to show this!

376
00:31:50,516 --> 00:31:53,974
The room is completely covered
with aluminum foil!

377
00:31:54,153 --> 00:31:57,987
Hundreds of flyers are
stored in these boxes.

378
00:31:59,525 --> 00:32:05,395
What does it say on these flyers?
i mean...

379
00:32:05,531 --> 00:32:07,829
What are they for?

380
00:32:08,300 --> 00:32:14,261
For years I have received
dangerous information...

381
00:32:14,406 --> 00:32:16,499
Dangerous messages...

382
00:32:17,276 --> 00:32:18,937
Space...

383
00:32:20,045 --> 00:32:21,205
What?

384
00:32:22,281 --> 00:32:24,442
- Space!
- Space!

385
00:32:24,984 --> 00:32:26,645
With space...

386
00:32:29,154 --> 00:32:31,145
I can connect...

387
00:32:34,860 --> 00:32:36,589
I can see the future…

388
00:32:37,196 --> 00:32:39,858
Many bad, mean...

389
00:32:43,002 --> 00:32:44,936
Ectoplasmic worms...

390
00:32:45,971 --> 00:32:49,998
It says like this.
"Ectoplasmic Worms."

391
00:32:50,843 --> 00:32:55,746
The worms are over,
crawling, twisting...

392
00:33:05,858 --> 00:33:10,818
The super psychic expresses himself
himself with body language.

393
00:33:12,064 --> 00:33:14,658
Is that his expression for
the ectoplasmic worms?

394
00:33:18,003 --> 00:33:20,335
"December 22"

395
00:33:31,717 --> 00:33:38,054
Be something out of the ordinary
around the time Kana disappeared?

396
00:33:38,390 --> 00:33:42,793
For about a week
before she disappeared...

397
00:33:43,095 --> 00:33:51,195
there was a man
who constantly visited her.

398
00:33:51,403 --> 00:33:56,568
I had no idea
what he was talking about.

399
00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:08,079
He wore a hat covered with
aluminum foil.

400
00:34:08,554 --> 00:34:10,784
And also...

401
00:34:10,923 --> 00:34:16,657
he had a long coat covered with
aluminum foil.

402
00:34:17,796 --> 00:34:21,630
And for some reason, Kana told me…

403
00:34:21,767 --> 00:34:27,967
that the man was
no threat to her...

404
00:34:29,308 --> 00:34:31,105
The day Kana disappeared...

405
00:34:31,410 --> 00:34:38,475
We found this strange flyer.
It was placed face down.

406
00:34:39,818 --> 00:34:44,687
It says "Help."
I think this is Kana's handwriting.

407
00:34:46,024 --> 00:34:48,390
See what Kana drew on this?

408
00:34:48,527 --> 00:34:52,623
Has she always drawn
pattern like this?

409
00:34:52,831 --> 00:34:57,291
“Kana's parents said they would never do it
seen anything like it before."

410
00:34:57,436 --> 00:34:59,301
"Help."

411
00:35:15,954 --> 00:35:18,787
"The crowds are increasing.
If we don't deal with them…”

412
00:35:21,527 --> 00:35:24,724
Hello, is mr. Hori at home?

413
00:35:28,333 --> 00:35:29,698
Excuse me.

414
00:35:37,709 --> 00:35:41,702
I am a journalist
do some research.

415
00:35:41,980 --> 00:35:46,246
Can you help me with my research
into the missing girl, Kana?

416
00:35:47,686 --> 00:35:48,948
Who are you?

417
00:35:49,621 --> 00:35:52,215
My name is Kobayashi.

418
00:35:52,658 --> 00:35:55,957
I think we met on the talk show
the second night.

419
00:36:02,935 --> 00:36:04,095
What?

420
00:36:04,436 --> 00:36:05,664
Come in!

421
00:36:11,777 --> 00:36:13,301
Oh, excuse me.

422
00:36:18,317 --> 00:36:23,220
What is it with
the aluminum on the walls?

423
00:36:23,388 --> 00:36:25,982
Why are you covered by it?

424
00:36:28,126 --> 00:36:32,654
It protects me from the tingling.

425
00:36:32,831 --> 00:36:38,861
Because the ectoplasmic worms
is near...

426
00:36:40,205 --> 00:36:43,402
What are these ectoplasmic worms?

427
00:36:48,013 --> 00:36:51,244
These horrible worms…

428
00:36:53,151 --> 00:36:55,551
they are everywhere.

429
00:36:56,522 --> 00:37:00,185
They eat people and they multiply.

430
00:37:00,526 --> 00:37:02,187
Eating people?

431
00:37:04,029 --> 00:37:06,463
Kana...

432
00:37:07,799 --> 00:37:10,063
She was also eaten.

433
00:37:11,403 --> 00:37:13,200
Kana?

434
00:37:14,606 --> 00:37:16,335
Mr. Hori.

435
00:37:17,309 --> 00:37:22,406
You know something about her,
not you?

436
00:37:28,587 --> 00:37:30,521
Where is Kana now?

437
00:37:33,492 --> 00:37:37,258
I lost track of where she is…

438
00:37:42,234 --> 00:37:45,761
Mr. Hori! Drop my bag!

439
00:37:46,238 --> 00:37:49,207
Stop immediately!

440
00:37:51,777 --> 00:37:53,938
Kana!

441
00:37:54,546 --> 00:37:57,106
This aviator...

442
00:37:58,417 --> 00:38:01,147
I picked it up at her house.

443
00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:04,684
What do you know about
her disappearance?

444
00:38:05,223 --> 00:38:06,588
Quiet!

445
00:38:21,506 --> 00:38:22,973
Blue...

446
00:38:24,076 --> 00:38:26,408
A blue building...

447
00:38:27,479 --> 00:38:29,037
A blue building...

448
00:38:29,181 --> 00:38:30,512
Blue?

449
00:38:32,084 --> 00:38:35,781
Galvanized iron sheets...

450
00:38:37,255 --> 00:38:38,517
What is it?

451
00:38:38,657 --> 00:38:40,181
Cars...

452
00:38:41,660 --> 00:38:43,184
A parking space?

453
00:38:46,331 --> 00:38:48,060
Is he drawing a map?

454
00:38:49,134 --> 00:38:53,298
The worms come out...

455
00:38:53,438 --> 00:38:55,372
The worms?

456
00:38:55,707 --> 00:38:57,607
The worms come out.

457
00:38:58,944 --> 00:39:04,041
A young man...

458
00:39:07,252 --> 00:39:08,981
A young man.

459
00:39:09,187 --> 00:39:14,284
The worms took Kana away.

460
00:39:14,626 --> 00:39:17,925
They took her away!

461
00:39:37,749 --> 00:39:39,216
in that direction?

462
00:39:41,219 --> 00:39:43,744
Wait a minute, Mr. Hori.

463
00:39:44,022 --> 00:39:45,819
I have a map for you.

464
00:39:45,957 --> 00:39:48,755
This is where we are.

465
00:39:48,894 --> 00:39:51,488
That way!

466
00:39:54,533 --> 00:39:56,558
I can't read the map...

467
00:39:57,369 --> 00:39:59,394
Did he say that?

468
00:40:06,078 --> 00:40:08,672
What is Kagutaba?

469
00:40:09,448 --> 00:40:12,508
Kagu... What did you say?

470
00:40:18,890 --> 00:40:20,619
Calm down, Mr. Hori!

471
00:40:22,828 --> 00:40:25,058
are you ok

472
00:40:31,403 --> 00:40:33,928
Calm!

473
00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:36,364
Go away!

474
00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:50,251
Excuse us!

475
00:40:54,993 --> 00:40:59,157
Something strange happened
to the video picture...

476
00:41:00,132 --> 00:41:01,656
What do you mean by "weird"?

477
00:41:40,739 --> 00:41:42,832
“Kobayashi was looking for Kana according to
to the map of Mitsuo Hori."

478
00:41:42,974 --> 00:41:45,841
Mr. Kobayashi, how about that
apartment over there?

479
00:41:46,878 --> 00:41:48,573
There is a parking lot.

480
00:41:51,049 --> 00:41:53,574
But they are in different positions.

481
00:41:54,152 --> 00:41:56,143
It is a blue building.

482
00:41:57,222 --> 00:42:00,020
But it only has two stories.

483
00:42:00,625 --> 00:42:01,887
This is not it.

484
00:42:12,237 --> 00:42:13,670
This is difficult.

485
00:42:14,806 --> 00:42:16,899
Hello, this is Marika Matsumoto.

486
00:42:17,309 --> 00:42:21,211
I have something I want to show you.

487
00:42:21,379 --> 00:42:22,403
What is it?

488
00:42:25,550 --> 00:42:27,643
"December 26, Meguro, Tokyo"

489
00:42:27,786 --> 00:42:32,223
I wanted to show you these loops.

490
00:42:32,924 --> 00:42:38,385
When I woke up yesterday morning,
I found the yarn.

491
00:42:39,197 --> 00:42:43,759
And the wool was tied up
these complicated knots.

492
00:42:43,902 --> 00:42:46,632
With many loops.

493
00:42:46,805 --> 00:42:52,505
I don't remember putting the yarn here
before I went to bed.

494
00:42:52,978 --> 00:42:57,074
I don't remember tying the wool
in knots either.

495
00:42:57,382 --> 00:43:02,217
Something must have happened
while I slept.

496
00:43:02,754 --> 00:43:06,656
I'm afraid to sleep now...

497
00:43:06,858 --> 00:43:09,588
I leave the camera plugged in.

498
00:43:09,728 --> 00:43:12,356
Turn it on when you go to bed.

499
00:43:13,131 --> 00:43:14,428
Okay.

500
00:43:24,242 --> 00:43:27,837
"Later at Night"

501
00:44:48,193 --> 00:44:50,991
And you never woke up until morning?

502
00:44:51,629 --> 00:44:52,994
No.

503
00:44:56,034 --> 00:45:00,095
And you remember nothing afterwards
did you fall asleep first?

504
00:45:01,139 --> 00:45:02,936
No, I don't.

505
00:45:16,087 --> 00:45:20,683
These loops look just right
those on the wool.

506
00:45:21,292 --> 00:45:22,725
They do...

507
00:45:22,861 --> 00:45:26,456
Very similar...
The way they are bound…

508
00:45:42,047 --> 00:45:48,350
Maybe this is the same bang
noise recorded on the video.

509
00:45:50,588 --> 00:45:52,419
It could be.

510
00:45:54,125 --> 00:45:58,425
A girl who works at the same agency
lives upstairs.

511
00:45:58,630 --> 00:46:00,120
Is that right?

512
00:46:00,598 --> 00:46:03,066
How long has it been like this?

513
00:46:03,601 --> 00:46:05,398
Lately...

514
00:46:05,537 --> 00:46:07,368
Uh-huh.

515
00:46:09,541 --> 00:46:11,065
Sorry to disturb you.

516
00:46:11,209 --> 00:46:13,234
What's going on?

517
00:46:16,281 --> 00:46:18,078
Is this for TV?

518
00:46:18,216 --> 00:46:24,815
Did you hit the floor?

519
00:46:25,623 --> 00:46:28,649
What? No, I haven't.

520
00:46:28,793 --> 00:46:30,658
Did you hear a popping sound?

521
00:46:31,429 --> 00:46:34,990
I've been here all day,
but I heard nothing.

522
00:46:35,133 --> 00:46:36,600
- You didn't?
- No.

523
00:46:36,868 --> 00:46:40,235
I heard banging...

524
00:46:40,505 --> 00:46:46,535
late last night too.

525
00:46:47,011 --> 00:46:50,970
Really? I didn't hear that either.

526
00:46:51,149 --> 00:46:52,480
Are you sure?

527
00:46:52,817 --> 00:46:57,254
Have you noticed anything?
out of the ordinary recently?

528
00:46:58,590 --> 00:47:03,618
Have you been feeling unexplainably ill?

529
00:47:03,828 --> 00:47:05,420
Something like that?

530
00:47:06,831 --> 00:47:10,494
No, nothing strange has happened
happening in my life.

531
00:47:10,902 --> 00:47:13,530
Sorry. Did we scare you?

532
00:47:13,671 --> 00:47:15,104
No, it's okay.

533
00:47:19,477 --> 00:47:23,379
"January 6, 2004, Nakano, Tokyo"

534
00:47:24,115 --> 00:47:27,084
I didn't know
what was this before...

535
00:47:27,218 --> 00:47:29,516
But I think this is a telephone pole

536
00:47:29,654 --> 00:47:33,647
3 stories. Even the number
windows matches.

537
00:47:33,791 --> 00:47:36,817
It's a bluish building too.

538
00:47:37,028 --> 00:47:38,689
And the room listed is...

539
00:47:38,830 --> 00:47:42,926
2nd from the right
3rd floor.

540
00:47:43,101 --> 00:47:47,003
The one with garbage bags
on the veranda.

541
00:47:47,672 --> 00:47:49,799
Let's go to the room.

542
00:48:01,753 --> 00:48:03,414
A person named Osawa lives here.

543
00:48:09,260 --> 00:48:12,991
Hello, is mr. Osawa with?

544
00:48:24,342 --> 00:48:25,741
I can hear something inside.

545
00:48:33,718 --> 00:48:35,447
Excuse me.

546
00:48:35,653 --> 00:48:40,750
Do you know anything about Mr. Osawa
who lives next door?

547
00:48:41,359 --> 00:48:44,851
He is a man of about 25.

548
00:48:44,996 --> 00:48:49,592
I hardly see him.
He often talks to himself.

549
00:48:49,734 --> 00:48:54,296
He also did the banging
sound a while ago.

550
00:48:54,439 --> 00:48:57,670
Did you hear that sound?

551
00:48:57,809 --> 00:49:03,805
Have you ever seen the man
with a girl...

552
00:49:03,948 --> 00:49:08,908
about 10 years?

553
00:49:09,387 --> 00:49:12,584
No, I've never seen him
with a girl.

554
00:49:15,727 --> 00:49:19,891
"January 7"

555
00:49:25,870 --> 00:49:29,601
The pigeons are just on
Osawa's Porch.

556
00:49:30,742 --> 00:49:32,334
It's strange.

557
00:49:32,710 --> 00:49:35,270
Keep the camera in the room.

558
00:49:35,413 --> 00:49:36,573
Definitely.

559
00:50:09,147 --> 00:50:11,274
There he is.

560
00:50:29,734 --> 00:50:33,534
"A few days later, Osawa disappeared."

561
00:50:42,747 --> 00:50:50,176
There is a strange sound on
tape of Marika in her room.

562
00:50:50,321 --> 00:50:51,913
I play it up.

563
00:51:02,467 --> 00:51:03,491
Around here.

564
00:51:17,515 --> 00:51:19,506
Did you hear that?

565
00:51:23,421 --> 00:51:28,051
"We had the tape analyzed."

566
00:51:30,294 --> 00:51:34,060
The original audio is here.
On the right it is processed.

567
00:51:34,365 --> 00:51:35,957
You can compare them.

568
00:51:41,606 --> 00:51:44,131
The sound decreases
on this recording.

569
00:51:53,818 --> 00:51:55,479
What is Kagutaba?

570
00:52:24,048 --> 00:52:25,174
What do you think?

571
00:52:26,918 --> 00:52:30,649
It actually sounds like…

572
00:52:30,855 --> 00:52:37,886
the voice I heard
the shrine that night.

573
00:52:38,296 --> 00:52:42,824
You mean the shrine
did you visit for the tv show?

574
00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:44,524
Yes.

575
00:52:44,869 --> 00:52:47,337
It sounds just like that voice.

576
00:52:48,172 --> 00:52:52,802
The voice on the tape works
to say, Kagutaba.

577
00:52:52,944 --> 00:52:56,107
Kagutaba?

578
00:52:57,281 --> 00:53:02,514
Has the word Kagutaba
mean something to you?

579
00:53:04,655 --> 00:53:08,887
No, I don't think so.

580
00:53:09,360 --> 00:53:11,055
I've never heard of it.

581
00:53:20,571 --> 00:53:23,039
“Kobayashi started looking in
the word Kagutaba."

582
00:53:23,241 --> 00:53:25,573
It is this word, Kagutaba.

583
00:53:25,710 --> 00:53:27,200
Yes, Kagutaba.

584
00:53:27,612 --> 00:53:33,312
It's far-fetched, but you could
speculate that it derives from

585
00:53:33,451 --> 00:53:36,181
Kamitama, which means god's spirit.

586
00:53:36,320 --> 00:53:38,049
I see. Spirit of God...

587
00:53:38,189 --> 00:53:42,455
Have you ever heard a foreign word

588
00:53:42,593 --> 00:53:44,925
it sounds like Kagutaba?

589
00:53:45,062 --> 00:53:47,656
I can't think of any.

590
00:53:47,798 --> 00:53:50,028
Is this Dr. Shioya?

591
00:53:50,234 --> 00:53:53,567
I'm trying to figure it out
a strange word.

592
00:53:53,871 --> 00:53:56,203
The word is Kagutaba.

593
00:53:56,674 --> 00:53:57,641
Kagutaba?

594
00:53:57,775 --> 00:53:59,970
Yes, that's right.

595
00:54:00,111 --> 00:54:02,545
Kagutaba...

596
00:54:04,515 --> 00:54:09,646
I think I saw it in some book
or something.

597
00:54:14,325 --> 00:54:15,917
It is a pleasure to meet you, sir.

598
00:54:18,095 --> 00:54:20,962
Let's begin.

599
00:54:21,098 --> 00:54:25,125
The book you mentioned on the phone.

600
00:54:25,436 --> 00:54:26,801
Can I take a look at it?

601
00:54:27,405 --> 00:54:32,809
This is an ethnological document
compiled by Tokita county office

602
00:54:33,578 --> 00:54:38,675
I found the word Kagutaba
mentioned in this book.

603
00:54:38,950 --> 00:54:43,387
There is a town called Shikamimachi
in Tokita county.

604
00:54:43,521 --> 00:54:46,251
Right next to the town

605
00:54:46,390 --> 00:54:50,258
there used to be a village called
Shimokage village.

606
00:54:50,461 --> 00:54:53,259
It is now at the bottom of a pond.

607
00:54:53,831 --> 00:54:59,895
Before the demise of the village
the villagers had a strange custom.

608
00:55:00,037 --> 00:55:03,200
It was called the Demon Ritual.

609
00:55:03,341 --> 00:55:05,070
Demon ritual?

610
00:55:05,309 --> 00:55:08,676
It was performed
to appease the demon.

611
00:55:08,813 --> 00:55:13,079
And according to the book…

612
00:55:13,618 --> 00:55:17,850
The demon's name was Kagutaba.

613
00:55:18,990 --> 00:55:24,656
Does it mean that Kagutaba
is the name of a demon?

614
00:55:25,429 --> 00:55:31,197
Well, it's hard to say.
I think it was just…

615
00:55:31,335 --> 00:55:37,103
convenient for them to call
the unknown being a demon.

616
00:55:38,109 --> 00:55:43,479
This is a document that is over
200 years old.

617
00:55:44,348 --> 00:55:46,680
It says Kagutaba here.

618
00:55:46,851 --> 00:55:51,117
Kanji characters for
"catastrophe, tool and spirit."

619
00:55:51,455 --> 00:55:54,549
The 3 characters make up
the word Kagutaba.

620
00:55:54,925 --> 00:55:59,794
A tool that can cause
disasters.

621
00:55:59,930 --> 00:56:01,693
That's what it means.

622
00:56:02,099 --> 00:56:06,593
A long time ago,
in the village of Shimokage...

623
00:56:06,737 --> 00:56:11,470
there was a group of wizards
who migrated from the west.

624
00:56:11,742 --> 00:56:17,237
They developed a type of sorcery
called "Shimokage's Way".

625
00:56:17,381 --> 00:56:25,083
One of their spells was called
"The Kagutaba Method".

626
00:56:25,489 --> 00:56:29,983
The wizard performed the spell
to call Kagutaba…

627
00:56:30,127 --> 00:56:34,962
that was sent to an opponent
to put him under a deadly spell.

628
00:56:35,099 --> 00:56:39,934
The document says so
it was the role of Kagutaba.

629
00:56:40,104 --> 00:56:43,801
But in one event,
when a wizard summoned Kagutaba…

630
00:56:44,041 --> 00:56:47,704
it disobeyed the instructions from
the wizard.

631
00:56:48,279 --> 00:56:52,079
It started doing evil things
on your own.

632
00:56:52,349 --> 00:56:55,841
So the wizard…
performed another spell

633
00:56:56,187 --> 00:57:01,648
and finally it succeeded
confines Kagutaba deep underground.

634
00:57:05,396 --> 00:57:09,594
“Shimokage Village submerged with
the construction of Shikami Dam in 1978"

635
00:57:09,734 --> 00:57:11,702
"The demon ritual was interrupted."

636
00:57:13,738 --> 00:57:15,638
This is Shikami City Hall.

637
00:57:15,906 --> 00:57:19,967
I am interested in the ancient rituals
is performed

638
00:57:20,111 --> 00:57:22,944
at Shimokage village before it left
under the water.

639
00:57:24,248 --> 00:57:26,148
Okay... Wait please.

640
00:57:28,319 --> 00:57:31,186
So you want to know
about the Shimokage rituals?

641
00:57:31,322 --> 00:57:32,550
Yes, I do.

642
00:57:33,023 --> 00:57:35,992
We don't have it
very well documented so…

643
00:57:36,227 --> 00:57:38,923
I will introduce you to someone.

644
00:57:39,163 --> 00:57:43,065
Mr. Tanimura
researching local history.

645
00:57:43,300 --> 00:57:45,632
Hello, my name is Kobayashi.

646
00:57:47,238 --> 00:57:48,762
Hi there.

647
00:57:49,540 --> 00:57:51,132
Please come in.

648
00:57:51,675 --> 00:57:55,543
The ritual was never
performed in public.

649
00:57:55,679 --> 00:57:57,772
So there is no documentation.

650
00:57:58,315 --> 00:58:03,014
But the last ritual
which was performed in 1978 was filmed

651
00:58:03,187 --> 00:58:08,955
of a film production contracted by
Mr. Ishii, the priest.

652
00:58:09,493 --> 00:58:11,723
These are the 16mm films.

653
00:58:12,997 --> 00:58:15,795
I pleaded with the Ishii family to do so
give them to me.

654
00:58:16,066 --> 00:58:23,404
This is the video.
I transferred the film to video.

655
00:58:33,951 --> 00:58:39,787
The village of Shimokage was a community
of wizards.

656
00:58:40,090 --> 00:58:42,991
The villagers
still believe in witchcraft.

657
00:58:45,262 --> 00:58:48,925
Now it's becoming a fading memory

658
00:58:49,233 --> 00:58:56,264
but they still make a difference
the door to keep out evil spirits.

659
00:58:56,407 --> 00:59:02,505
Those who left the village have
a sickle above their front doors.

660
00:59:02,913 --> 00:59:04,346
Interesting.

661
00:59:04,481 --> 00:59:05,812
"We don't need dust!"

662
00:59:09,620 --> 00:59:13,283
Shimokage wizards used dogs
in their rituals.

663
00:59:13,557 --> 00:59:18,824
That is why the villagers
still have dogs.

664
00:59:22,066 --> 00:59:25,729
This is the Demon Shrine over there
the ritual was performed.

665
00:59:27,371 --> 00:59:31,307
Mr. Ishii was a priest
at this shrine.

666
00:59:31,642 --> 00:59:33,837
You will see him in a minute.

667
00:59:37,448 --> 00:59:41,316
Look. It is Kagutaba.

668
00:59:44,655 --> 00:59:48,489
This ritual is to appease the demon.

669
01:00:13,450 --> 01:00:16,613
Now Kagutaba is ravaging.

670
01:00:33,470 --> 01:00:37,133
It's Ishii, the priest.

671
01:00:37,808 --> 01:00:42,006
He will pacify Kagutaba.

672
01:00:49,186 --> 01:00:52,087
Now the priest will bow...

673
01:00:52,890 --> 01:01:01,491
A bow, four claps... and a bow.

674
01:01:02,199 --> 01:01:06,863
This is a distinct way of bowing,
only done at this shrine.

675
01:01:08,272 --> 01:01:14,734
Usually there are two bows,
two clappers and a bow.

676
01:01:16,213 --> 01:01:19,842
But this is a bow,
four claps, a bow.

677
01:01:19,984 --> 01:01:25,650
There is no other place in Japan
where people bend in this way.

678
01:01:25,923 --> 01:01:30,019
But after the priest bowed…

679
01:01:30,194 --> 01:01:36,963
The woman who played the part
of Kagutaba became delirious.

680
01:01:37,201 --> 01:01:39,362
They had to stop the ritual.

681
01:02:29,119 --> 01:02:34,079
The religious villagers said so
she was obsessed.

682
01:02:35,059 --> 01:02:38,790
Some said so
because of the dam plan…

683
01:02:38,962 --> 01:02:43,956
the ritual would not be performed
again, which angered Kagutaba.

684
01:02:44,201 --> 01:02:46,533
They thought it was
some kind of curse.

685
01:02:47,337 --> 01:02:53,674
In the legend, Kagutaba was trapped
under Shimokage village.

686
01:02:53,977 --> 01:02:57,743
And that is the demon in the ritual.

687
01:02:58,148 --> 01:03:00,878
What was it really?

688
01:03:01,418 --> 01:03:05,047
Nobody knows for sure.

689
01:03:06,356 --> 01:03:11,453
I would like to meet
Mr. Ishii, the priest.

690
01:03:11,962 --> 01:03:13,452
Is it possible?

691
01:03:13,997 --> 01:03:20,766
7 years ago, right after
give me the movie…

692
01:03:21,004 --> 01:03:23,268
Mr. Ishii died of an illness.

693
01:03:23,440 --> 01:03:27,877
So did his wife though
their only daughter is still alive.

694
01:03:28,579 --> 01:03:33,448
She was the possessed woman
in the movie...

695
01:03:33,584 --> 01:03:36,747
She recently moved back here
from Tokyo.

696
01:03:36,887 --> 01:03:40,983
I heard she lives with
her son in the Ishii house.

697
01:03:41,525 --> 01:03:44,517
She is in the Mikaishi community,

698
01:03:44,661 --> 01:03:46,754
where the Shimokage villagers
moved to.

699
01:03:46,930 --> 01:03:48,397
Mikaishi?

700
01:03:48,866 --> 01:03:52,427
I heard that too
she is a bit eccentric.

701
01:03:53,303 --> 01:03:56,636
I don't know if she will talk to you.

702
01:04:07,651 --> 01:04:09,516
"Mikaishi Village"

703
01:04:09,653 --> 01:04:11,746
I think we are almost there.

704
01:04:34,077 --> 01:04:35,476
What is this?

705
01:05:06,710 --> 01:05:08,803
This must be related.

706
01:05:13,283 --> 01:05:14,682
Hello?

707
01:05:18,355 --> 01:05:19,822
Hello?

708
01:05:23,493 --> 01:05:25,393
Anyone at home?

709
01:05:28,599 --> 01:05:31,193
How can you talk to me like that!?

710
01:05:31,568 --> 01:05:35,095
I'm asking you!
How can you talk to me like that?

711
01:05:45,816 --> 01:05:47,647
Did you see her?

712
01:05:48,252 --> 01:05:49,844
I did that.

713
01:05:51,188 --> 01:05:57,354
A woman in her 40s and her boy,
between 6 and 9 years.

714
01:05:57,828 --> 01:06:00,991
How can you?
talk to me like that?

715
01:06:01,198 --> 01:06:04,361
So her name is Junko Ishii.

716
01:06:08,372 --> 01:06:12,900
Kobayashi asked around.

717
01:06:16,480 --> 01:06:18,380
Look, sickle.

718
01:06:19,483 --> 01:06:21,883
Hello, anyone home?

719
01:06:33,063 --> 01:06:35,896
Is there anyone at home?

720
01:06:36,500 --> 01:06:37,467
No.

721
01:06:41,438 --> 01:06:42,905
can i help you

722
01:06:43,240 --> 01:06:48,234
Excuse me but you know
The Ishii house down the street?

723
01:06:48,945 --> 01:06:51,675
It seems there is
something strange...

724
01:06:51,948 --> 01:06:56,612
Yes, since then
daughter came back.

725
01:06:57,020 --> 01:06:59,181
You better stay away from her.

726
01:07:01,191 --> 01:07:02,488
For your own sake.

727
01:07:09,733 --> 01:07:10,927
Excuse me.

728
01:07:13,236 --> 01:07:14,362
What?

729
01:07:14,538 --> 01:07:15,630
Sorry to disturb you.

730
01:07:15,772 --> 01:07:16,864
TV?

731
01:07:17,207 --> 01:07:21,303
You know Mrs. Ishii down the street.

732
01:07:21,611 --> 01:07:23,010
Ishii?

733
01:07:37,427 --> 01:07:43,059
I am a journalist and researcher.
Maybe you can help me.

734
01:07:43,200 --> 01:07:43,962
Can you help me?

735
01:07:44,101 --> 01:07:45,625
Come in.

736
01:07:46,036 --> 01:07:48,004
Oh, thank you so much.

737
01:07:49,106 --> 01:07:54,806
I was a good friend of Junko
before she moved out.

738
01:07:55,112 --> 01:07:59,640
She left the village to go
to nursing school in Tokyo.

739
01:07:59,783 --> 01:08:03,719
Do you remember
school name?

740
01:08:03,854 --> 01:08:11,556
Musashino nursing school or something.
I don't remember clearly.

741
01:08:11,695 --> 01:08:16,792
How can I put this…
Has Junko always been…

742
01:08:16,933 --> 01:08:19,868
mentally disturbed as she is now?

743
01:08:20,003 --> 01:08:21,595
Not at all.

744
01:08:21,772 --> 01:08:24,639
She was just a friendly,
ordinary girl.

745
01:08:24,775 --> 01:08:25,571
Was she?

746
01:08:25,709 --> 01:08:29,201
She changed after the demon ritual.

747
01:08:29,346 --> 01:08:30,677
The Demon Ritual?

748
01:08:31,281 --> 01:08:33,545
She started behaving strangely.

749
01:08:35,118 --> 01:08:39,817
I think the ritual caused her
to be possessed.

750
01:08:42,292 --> 01:08:48,060
She told me that she had heard
God's voice.

751
01:08:48,665 --> 01:08:51,463
She said she had to obey his words.

752
01:08:52,736 --> 01:08:57,070
She got a little weird
after that.

753
01:08:57,507 --> 01:09:03,207
I heard people think
it was Kagutaba's curse.

754
01:09:03,947 --> 01:09:05,574
Do you think she was…

755
01:09:23,200 --> 01:09:25,430
Excuse me?

756
01:09:30,407 --> 01:09:31,567
Hello?

757
01:09:38,081 --> 01:09:40,311
"January 21, Musashino, Tokyo"

758
01:09:40,450 --> 01:09:46,912
May I ask a few questions about
Junko Ishii, one of your graduates?

759
01:09:47,057 --> 01:09:51,357
After she graduated in 1982

760
01:09:51,495 --> 01:09:56,228
she got a job at an obstetrics clinic
in Hachioji.

761
01:09:56,366 --> 01:09:58,493
I can reveal the name of
the clinic

762
01:09:58,668 --> 01:10:02,536
but it closed in 2000.

763
01:10:05,876 --> 01:10:09,778
May I ask you a few questions

764
01:10:09,980 --> 01:10:12,710
regarding someone
you worked with?

765
01:10:12,849 --> 01:10:14,339
Sure.

766
01:10:14,918 --> 01:10:18,445
Junko Ishii.
What kind of person was she?

767
01:10:19,189 --> 01:10:24,149
She was a very hard working woman.

768
01:10:24,361 --> 01:10:27,353
Quiet in an eerie way.

769
01:10:27,631 --> 01:10:32,659
She was that kind of woman
who only talk about work.

770
01:10:33,503 --> 01:10:36,734
The clinic we used to work for…

771
01:10:36,873 --> 01:10:42,243
performed abortions even in
the 22nd week of pregnancy.

772
01:10:43,513 --> 01:10:46,038
It is clearly illegal.

773
01:10:46,283 --> 01:10:52,518
And she was the one in charge
disposal of the aborted embryos.

774
01:10:52,656 --> 01:10:57,059
There was a rumor about it
she took the embryos home.

775
01:10:59,396 --> 01:11:01,921
"Did she really take the embryos?"

776
01:11:02,065 --> 01:11:04,363
"If she did, for what purpose?"

777
01:11:07,604 --> 01:11:10,698
"February 6th"

778
01:11:13,543 --> 01:11:18,845
Midori? Is she your colleague...

779
01:11:18,982 --> 01:11:21,450
the one who lives directly upstairs?

780
01:11:25,088 --> 01:11:26,885
Yes. Midori has…

781
01:11:35,732 --> 01:11:37,529
She is dead.

782
01:11:40,670 --> 01:11:46,905
The police came and told me that...

783
01:11:53,450 --> 01:12:01,152
Midori... committed suicide.

784
01:12:03,059 --> 01:12:05,425
She did it in the park.

785
01:12:07,464 --> 01:12:11,298
She killed herself with…

786
01:12:12,636 --> 01:12:15,867
a bunch of strangers.

787
01:12:18,842 --> 01:12:20,867
They hanged themselves...

788
01:12:24,347 --> 01:12:27,510
Do you think it was my fault?

789
01:12:32,422 --> 01:12:36,882
I was so scared that
I left the apartment.

790
01:12:43,600 --> 01:12:45,397
I'm sorry...

791
01:12:46,236 --> 01:12:48,204
I'm sorry...

792
01:12:52,042 --> 01:12:56,570
Kobayashi asked his wife to do it
take care of Marika.

793
01:13:03,319 --> 01:13:05,082
I'm at home.

794
01:13:07,390 --> 01:13:08,721
Hello.

795
01:13:09,059 --> 01:13:09,889
Keiko, my wife.

796
01:13:10,026 --> 01:13:11,323
Nice to meet you.

797
01:13:11,861 --> 01:13:15,262
It's kind of you to let me stay.

798
01:13:17,934 --> 01:13:21,768
"News footage aired same night"

799
01:13:21,938 --> 01:13:26,705
06.00 today in Hironuma Park
in Nerima, Tokyo...

800
01:13:26,943 --> 01:13:31,812
7 men and women were found dead.

801
01:13:31,948 --> 01:13:34,849
They hung
from the iron bar of the swing.

802
01:13:35,852 --> 01:13:41,586
It is suspected that strangers
gathered to commit suicide.

803
01:13:44,928 --> 01:13:49,024
"7 bodies hanging from the swing."

804
01:13:55,338 --> 01:14:00,867
Here are the names of them
who hanged himself.

805
01:14:01,010 --> 01:14:03,103
"February 10"

806
01:14:04,013 --> 01:14:05,344
Look.

807
01:14:07,016 --> 01:14:11,476
This is the girl who lived
upstairs from Marika.

808
01:14:17,293 --> 01:14:19,193
And look at him.

809
01:14:30,039 --> 01:14:34,635
When he first moved in
he was just a nice, normal guy.

810
01:14:34,978 --> 01:14:38,880
But half a year ago...
It was last summer...

811
01:14:39,048 --> 01:14:44,577
He started complaining a lot
the woman who lived next door.

812
01:14:44,854 --> 01:14:46,412
They argued a lot.

813
01:14:46,556 --> 01:14:47,614
Is that right?

814
01:14:47,757 --> 01:14:52,717
His neighbor was a tough one
middle aged woman.

815
01:14:53,496 --> 01:14:58,798
But eventually she moved out.
I guess she felt scared.

816
01:14:59,068 --> 01:15:01,559
Has the neighbor moved out?

817
01:15:01,704 --> 01:15:10,408
Do you remember which kind
arguments they used to have?

818
01:15:13,383 --> 01:15:16,750
He complained about the child
be too noisy.

819
01:15:16,886 --> 01:15:18,080
A baby?

820
01:15:18,221 --> 01:15:20,314
However, she did not have a child.

821
01:15:20,590 --> 01:15:26,756
It was just her and her boy
which was 5 or 6.

822
01:15:27,864 --> 01:15:30,128
Just a moment, please...

823
01:15:31,968 --> 01:15:36,996
Is the woman
who used to live there...

824
01:15:38,374 --> 01:15:41,138
Is this the woman?

825
01:15:41,477 --> 01:15:43,570
Yes, she is.

826
01:15:44,247 --> 01:15:46,147
No mistake. That's her.

827
01:15:52,255 --> 01:15:55,088
"News pictures, February 12"

828
01:15:56,326 --> 01:15:57,657
Next news.

829
01:15:57,994 --> 01:16:00,622
Earlier today in an apartment
in Fuchu

830
01:16:00,864 --> 01:16:05,528
a businessman stabbed his wife
to death and arrested.

831
01:16:05,935 --> 01:16:08,665
Our reporter is at the scene of the murder.

832
01:16:09,639 --> 01:16:11,539
Today at 7:10

833
01:16:11,774 --> 01:16:16,973
a man called the police
and said he had stabbed his wife.

834
01:16:17,280 --> 01:16:19,475
The police rushed
to the apartment

835
01:16:19,649 --> 01:16:23,881
and found Kimiko Yano
stabbed to death.

836
01:16:24,454 --> 01:16:29,391
The suspect was also at the scene,
Teruyuki Yano, her husband.

837
01:16:29,525 --> 01:16:32,824
He confessed and was arrested
in place.

838
01:16:33,062 --> 01:16:38,728
So far he has not told the police
why he killed his wife.

839
01:16:39,135 --> 01:16:44,198
Their daughter has gone missing
for a few months.

840
01:16:44,340 --> 01:16:47,605
Do the police know anything
about her disappearance?

841
01:16:48,578 --> 01:16:51,172
They have no information about her.

842
01:16:51,414 --> 01:16:56,477
Kana, the daughter disappeared
on December 19 last year.

843
01:16:56,753 --> 01:16:58,482
No clues have been found.

844
01:17:01,891 --> 01:17:07,625
Today Marika cooks for me.

845
01:17:07,764 --> 01:17:09,163
It's something yummy.

846
01:17:10,400 --> 01:17:14,302
It's Spaghetti al Bongole
with tomato sauce.

847
01:17:14,570 --> 01:17:19,803
Here, my special pasta
and potato salad.

848
01:17:20,777 --> 01:17:22,108
They look good.

849
01:17:22,278 --> 01:17:26,578
And this is... my special tea.

850
01:17:26,716 --> 01:17:28,581
Isn't it out of a can?

851
01:17:28,718 --> 01:17:31,243
No. It's my special oolong tea.

852
01:17:33,289 --> 01:17:35,450
Want some Tabasco?

853
01:17:35,858 --> 01:17:37,758
Yes? Here it comes.

854
01:17:39,562 --> 01:17:43,191
A gourmet lunch.

855
01:17:48,237 --> 01:17:49,602
Marika?

856
01:17:56,112 --> 01:17:57,704
Marika!

857
01:18:04,954 --> 01:18:07,923
Marika, what's wrong?

858
01:18:11,694 --> 01:18:13,161
Did I moan?

859
01:18:13,296 --> 01:18:14,661
Yes.

860
01:18:17,400 --> 01:18:23,202
You seemed to be suffering,
you moaned and…

861
01:18:26,109 --> 01:18:33,345
And some things crashed
the window at the same time.

862
01:18:53,102 --> 01:18:54,569
What is it?

863
01:18:54,737 --> 01:18:57,001
are you ok

864
01:19:33,776 --> 01:19:35,801
i am...

865
01:19:37,080 --> 01:19:39,310
I'm next to die.

866
01:19:49,926 --> 01:19:53,157
I'm going to Nagano again.

867
01:19:53,863 --> 01:19:56,331
I'm going to talk to Junko Ishii…

868
01:19:56,933 --> 01:20:02,735
and get her to talk to us.

869
01:20:05,141 --> 01:20:11,046
It will help us
solve this mystery.

870
01:20:16,519 --> 01:20:23,357
Hori, said the psychic
to watch out for pigeons.

871
01:20:24,760 --> 01:20:31,996
Did he mean that pigeons were
a sign of imminent death?

872
01:20:39,475 --> 01:20:46,779
Let's visit him tomorrow
and ask him about it.

873
01:20:55,925 --> 01:20:57,483
"We visited Mr. Hori"

874
01:20:57,627 --> 01:21:00,152
"to show him the Junko Ishii tape."

875
01:21:02,365 --> 01:21:06,301
"February 13"

876
01:21:12,775 --> 01:21:13,969
Mr. Hori.

877
01:21:15,311 --> 01:21:18,246
Are you ready, Mr. Hori?

878
01:21:20,650 --> 01:21:23,813
This is what we want you to watch.

879
01:21:25,488 --> 01:21:27,217
It's on this tape.

880
01:21:50,947 --> 01:21:52,414
I'm sorry.

881
01:21:53,749 --> 01:21:55,341
I have turned it off.

882
01:22:01,591 --> 01:22:04,560
Mr. Hori.

883
01:22:05,428 --> 01:22:09,330
When you watched the video,
did you feel something

884
01:22:09,498 --> 01:22:11,489
or did you see something?

885
01:22:13,736 --> 01:22:15,829
Mr. Hori.

886
01:22:25,615 --> 01:22:27,014
Mr. Kobayashi.

887
01:22:30,353 --> 01:22:32,651
Take me to the pond...

888
01:22:33,356 --> 01:22:37,087
where the village was,
the one with the demon rituals.

889
01:22:39,262 --> 01:22:41,662
Why do you want to go there?

890
01:22:41,797 --> 01:22:46,734
I want to try to perform
the ritual itself…

891
01:22:47,370 --> 01:22:50,032
and see what it does to me.

892
01:22:50,206 --> 01:22:51,867
Absolutely not!

893
01:22:52,008 --> 01:22:58,470
The ritual may have caused
Owned by Junko Ishii.

894
01:22:58,948 --> 01:23:01,246
It's too dangerous.

895
01:23:02,151 --> 01:23:06,485
If the ritual is necessary,
I'll go and do it myself.

896
01:23:06,722 --> 01:23:08,849
I don't want to die...

897
01:23:12,328 --> 01:23:14,853
I have to do it myself.

898
01:23:28,277 --> 01:23:29,801
Please.

899
01:23:35,251 --> 01:23:41,019
Okay then. Let's go to the pond.

900
01:23:41,424 --> 01:23:44,086
I will visit Mr. Hori again

901
01:23:44,427 --> 01:23:46,361
and ask him to come with us.

902
01:23:48,698 --> 01:23:51,394
Mr. Hori! We need your help!

903
01:23:51,701 --> 01:23:54,363
What can we do to contain
The Kagutaba Curse?

904
01:23:56,505 --> 01:23:57,802
Mr. Hori.

905
01:24:00,843 --> 01:24:04,301
We can't do this without your help.

906
01:24:06,882 --> 01:24:09,476
Kana...

907
01:24:10,119 --> 01:24:12,519
The worms have eaten her…

908
01:24:12,722 --> 01:24:16,658
Maybe these are worms
actually Kagutaba.

909
01:24:36,345 --> 01:24:39,178
It's too quiet here...

910
01:24:46,122 --> 01:24:49,455
Where are the dogs now?

911
01:24:54,597 --> 01:24:58,499
“We drove to the pond
where the Shimokage village used to be."

912
01:25:34,003 --> 01:25:36,904
"Shikami Lady"

913
01:25:39,308 --> 01:25:40,275
are you ok

914
01:25:56,192 --> 01:26:00,629
This is where we are on the map.

915
01:26:01,530 --> 01:26:03,930
So the sanctuary must have been…

916
01:26:04,767 --> 01:26:10,501
midway between that point
and the beach.

917
01:26:17,913 --> 01:26:19,244
We're going.

918
01:26:20,049 --> 01:26:22,449
Let me know when you get back.

919
01:26:22,985 --> 01:26:24,680
Thank you very much.

920
01:26:27,223 --> 01:26:30,522
We will be back soon.

921
01:26:38,167 --> 01:26:39,828
Are you okay, Marika?

922
01:26:41,403 --> 01:26:45,066
You don't look good.
We should go back.

923
01:26:45,241 --> 01:26:47,709
- I'm fine.
- Are you sure?

924
01:26:50,045 --> 01:26:51,478
We're almost there.

925
01:27:05,761 --> 01:27:06,921
It's about here.

926
01:27:08,197 --> 01:27:11,030
Let's get ready.

927
01:27:48,737 --> 01:27:50,034
Good.

928
01:27:51,307 --> 01:27:56,574
Now you bow in that special way.

929
01:27:57,913 --> 01:28:04,648
A bow, four clappers, a bow...

930
01:28:44,360 --> 01:28:45,554
How do you feel?

931
01:28:58,474 --> 01:28:59,702
Talk to me.

932
01:29:04,613 --> 01:29:06,274
I'm better.

933
01:29:06,982 --> 01:29:07,949
are you

934
01:29:08,417 --> 01:29:10,408
I feel lighter.

935
01:29:10,753 --> 01:29:16,214
Good! It worked for you.

936
01:29:16,625 --> 01:29:19,389
It was a good thing we came to do this!

937
01:29:19,528 --> 01:29:21,359
It is gone...

938
01:29:25,401 --> 01:29:30,498
What's wrong, Mr. Hori?

939
01:29:30,673 --> 01:29:32,163
It's not good...

940
01:29:32,307 --> 01:29:33,501
What is not good?

941
01:29:33,976 --> 01:29:36,001
It's not good at all...

942
01:29:36,345 --> 01:29:39,280
I feel so much clearer now.

943
01:29:39,915 --> 01:29:41,849
Thank you very much.

944
01:29:50,659 --> 01:29:51,990
Hurry back!

945
01:29:53,328 --> 01:29:55,626
Oh, no, no, no!

946
01:29:55,964 --> 01:29:57,295
Hurry!

947
01:29:57,599 --> 01:30:01,797
Get out of there!

948
01:30:02,171 --> 01:30:04,264
They will eat you!

949
01:30:04,840 --> 01:30:06,273
Now!

950
01:30:06,408 --> 01:30:07,773
Hurry!

951
01:30:08,877 --> 01:30:12,244
We must leave the mountain!

952
01:30:12,581 --> 01:30:13,741
Drive away!

953
01:30:13,882 --> 01:30:16,316
Let's get out of here then.

954
01:30:16,452 --> 01:30:18,420
Back to the car.

955
01:30:20,255 --> 01:30:21,415
Mr. Hori.

956
01:30:23,559 --> 01:30:24,685
Kana!

957
01:30:28,997 --> 01:30:30,965
Wait a minute, Mr. Hori!

958
01:30:31,100 --> 01:30:32,829
Take care of Marika.

959
01:30:33,102 --> 01:30:34,091
No problem.

960
01:30:38,607 --> 01:30:40,598
Mr. Kobayashi, wait!

961
01:30:40,876 --> 01:30:43,401
Don't worry, I'll be right back.

962
01:30:44,012 --> 01:30:45,843
He's okay. Let's go.

963
01:30:46,014 --> 01:30:46,981
Are you sure?

964
01:30:47,316 --> 01:30:48,408
To the car.

965
01:30:51,820 --> 01:30:52,980
wait a moment!

966
01:31:03,332 --> 01:31:07,063
Will they be okay?

967
01:31:07,269 --> 01:31:08,736
I'll look for them later.

968
01:31:09,471 --> 01:31:11,132
How do you feel now?

969
01:31:11,573 --> 01:31:15,373
Me? I feel fine.

970
01:31:16,044 --> 01:31:17,136
Let's go then.

971
01:31:20,649 --> 01:31:21,673
Mr. Hori!

972
01:31:22,985 --> 01:31:24,247
Kana!

973
01:31:27,923 --> 01:31:30,084
Mr. Hori, you must stop!

974
01:31:30,692 --> 01:31:32,250
Kana!

975
01:31:47,643 --> 01:31:51,909
wait a moment!

976
01:32:15,404 --> 01:32:16,166
Marika?

977
01:32:21,076 --> 01:32:24,045
Wait for me, Mr. Hori!

978
01:32:25,314 --> 01:32:26,474
What is it?

979
01:32:28,217 --> 01:32:30,617
What is wrong?

980
01:32:32,754 --> 01:32:34,187
Dogs?

981
01:32:37,426 --> 01:32:39,257
They have just been killed…

982
01:32:39,494 --> 01:32:41,018
Are they the village dogs?

983
01:32:44,933 --> 01:32:48,596
What happens now?

984
01:32:51,173 --> 01:32:54,108
What is this?

985
01:32:57,913 --> 01:33:02,782
It is a magical field…

986
01:33:07,256 --> 01:33:11,716
What's going on here?

987
01:33:17,766 --> 01:33:20,667
More dead dogs...

988
01:33:20,936 --> 01:33:25,100
Don't go in there!

989
01:33:25,774 --> 01:33:28,800
Stay away!

990
01:33:30,345 --> 01:33:31,471
Marika!

991
01:33:33,916 --> 01:33:36,441
Are you okay, Marika?

992
01:33:39,988 --> 01:33:41,956
Marika, what's wrong?

993
01:33:45,494 --> 01:33:47,894
Should I stop? are you ok

994
01:34:00,509 --> 01:34:02,534
What is wrong? are you ok

995
01:34:13,288 --> 01:34:14,448
Marika!

996
01:34:19,528 --> 01:34:20,961
Marika!

997
01:34:28,170 --> 01:34:32,266
What's going on, Mr. Hori?

998
01:34:32,674 --> 01:34:35,074
What did you find there?

999
01:34:39,548 --> 01:34:40,640
Marika!

1000
01:34:43,085 --> 01:34:44,279
Marika!

1001
01:34:52,094 --> 01:34:57,999
Marika, can you hear me?

1002
01:34:59,701 --> 01:35:02,192
can you hear me

1003
01:35:02,337 --> 01:35:06,865
Marika!

1004
01:35:22,624 --> 01:35:24,353
It's a shrine!

1005
01:35:25,060 --> 01:35:29,019
Kana... Kana...

1006
01:35:29,765 --> 01:35:31,027
Mr. Hori!

1007
01:35:46,948 --> 01:35:50,907
Mr. Hori, is Kana in there?

1008
01:35:51,520 --> 01:35:52,714
Marika.

1009
01:36:01,263 --> 01:36:02,230
Marika!

1010
01:36:09,971 --> 01:36:13,702
Marika!

1011
01:36:16,745 --> 01:36:18,679
Marika!

1012
01:36:20,749 --> 01:36:22,182
Kana.

1013
01:36:22,517 --> 01:36:25,486
Is she in there?

1014
01:36:31,460 --> 01:36:33,428
This is ancient.

1015
01:36:35,764 --> 01:36:36,856
My God!

1016
01:36:37,365 --> 01:36:40,664
This pattern is the same as
what Kana drew...

1017
01:36:43,872 --> 01:36:45,169
What's wrong, Mr. Hori?

1018
01:37:14,536 --> 01:37:18,370
Mr. Hori, are you okay?

1019
01:37:19,174 --> 01:37:20,641
Mr. Hori!

1020
01:37:23,512 --> 01:37:26,037
Get a hold of yourself!

1021
01:37:26,314 --> 01:37:27,747
Marika!

1022
01:37:29,651 --> 01:37:34,350
Come back!

1023
01:37:38,560 --> 01:37:42,462
can you hear me

1024
01:37:43,665 --> 01:37:44,893
Yes...

1025
01:37:47,736 --> 01:37:49,101
are you ok

1026
01:37:49,738 --> 01:37:51,467
Yes...

1027
01:37:52,374 --> 01:37:54,467
What is this?

1028
01:38:01,650 --> 01:38:05,814
“We took Marika and Mr. Hori
to a local hospital."

1029
01:38:08,723 --> 01:38:13,558
“And we went back to Junko Ishii's
house in search of truth."

1030
01:38:18,600 --> 01:38:19,760
Excuse me!

1031
01:38:58,773 --> 01:38:59,967
Let's go inside.

1032
01:39:15,657 --> 01:39:17,249
Let's go and see.

1033
01:39:53,795 --> 01:39:56,423
Film here.

1034
01:40:05,206 --> 01:40:06,298
Let's go up the stairs.

1035
01:40:53,588 --> 01:40:55,112
It's Junko Ishii.

1036
01:40:56,825 --> 01:41:00,852
That's her. She has hanged herself.

1037
01:41:04,766 --> 01:41:06,290
Look at it!

1038
01:41:07,836 --> 01:41:09,667
Kagutaba masks.

1039
01:41:14,776 --> 01:41:17,370
She has hung pigeons here...

1040
01:41:23,518 --> 01:41:26,248
There's a boy back there!

1041
01:41:26,388 --> 01:41:28,049
A boy?

1042
01:41:29,190 --> 01:41:30,623
There behind!

1043
01:41:35,163 --> 01:41:36,494
Kana!

1044
01:41:37,265 --> 01:41:40,132
It's Cana! It's her!

1045
01:41:42,837 --> 01:41:46,500
Kana!

1046
01:41:52,981 --> 01:41:54,949
She is cold...

1047
01:41:56,818 --> 01:41:58,547
are you ok

1048
01:41:59,020 --> 01:42:01,045
Are you injured?

1049
01:42:08,863 --> 01:42:10,125
Miyajima.

1050
01:42:11,599 --> 01:42:14,534
We have to call the police now.

1051
01:42:51,573 --> 01:42:55,509
“Missing girl found dead
in Nagano."

1052
01:42:56,778 --> 01:42:59,110
"The boy was assumed to be Ishii's son"

1053
01:42:59,247 --> 01:43:02,114
"isn't actually her child."

1054
01:43:02,817 --> 01:43:06,309
Kobayashi decided to adopt the boy.

1055
01:43:09,791 --> 01:43:13,625
"March 6"

1056
01:43:16,164 --> 01:43:17,392
Is it good?

1057
01:43:21,302 --> 01:43:22,894
Yummy?

1058
01:43:24,672 --> 01:43:26,902
It's a good omelette, isn't it?

1059
01:43:35,149 --> 01:43:40,018
Do you remember anything about
live with that woman?

1060
01:44:01,509 --> 01:44:05,343
Marika, you look very good now.

1061
01:44:05,947 --> 01:44:11,715
Yes. I have recovered well.

1062
01:44:13,021 --> 01:44:16,047
All that supernatural stuff…

1063
01:44:16,324 --> 01:44:20,351
has stopped happening.

1064
01:44:20,528 --> 01:44:22,359
Everything is normal now.

1065
01:44:22,630 --> 01:44:23,927
Have you gone back to work?

1066
01:44:24,465 --> 01:44:30,097
Yes. I'm going back to work soon.

1067
01:44:31,172 --> 01:44:32,833
You have to eat it.

1068
01:44:32,974 --> 01:44:34,839
Okay, let's eat them all.

1069
01:44:35,410 --> 01:44:37,344
Let's eat.

1070
01:44:38,146 --> 01:44:39,044
Yummy.

1071
01:44:39,280 --> 01:44:40,042
Are you sure?

1072
01:44:40,181 --> 01:44:41,580
Don't hit me! Oh...

1073
01:44:50,258 --> 01:44:53,887
"March 13"

1074
01:44:56,764 --> 01:45:00,097
“Hori has been committed
to an institution."

1075
01:45:00,602 --> 01:45:03,935
"No visitors are allowed."

1076
01:45:07,308 --> 01:45:08,900
"March 17"

1077
01:45:09,110 --> 01:45:13,342
I looked around for other things
connected to Kagutaba

1078
01:45:13,982 --> 01:45:16,280
after you left.

1079
01:45:16,551 --> 01:45:22,012
And I found this
my grandfather's collection.

1080
01:45:22,824 --> 01:45:24,155
Here.

1081
01:45:34,202 --> 01:45:38,138
It says, "Shimokage's Way,
The Kagutaba Method."

1082
01:45:38,272 --> 01:45:39,534
Oh, that's right.

1083
01:45:40,441 --> 01:45:42,432
I guess this scroll represents

1084
01:45:42,644 --> 01:45:47,104
the ritual performed
to call Kagutaba.

1085
01:45:47,448 --> 01:45:50,611
These are the monkeys.

1086
01:45:51,019 --> 01:45:54,386
And the dogs.

1087
01:45:55,323 --> 01:45:59,350
They sacrificed monkey

1088
01:46:03,765 --> 01:46:07,724
and offered them
to the medium to eat.

1089
01:46:15,510 --> 01:46:19,469
Just like the old spell of
The Shimokage Spell...

1090
01:46:19,947 --> 01:46:24,407
who used monkeys
as sacrifices.

1091
01:46:24,652 --> 01:46:29,783
Junko Ishii is used
Kana Yano as medium.

1092
01:46:30,758 --> 01:46:34,558
She fed Kana the aborted babies…

1093
01:46:34,962 --> 01:46:40,423
in an attempt to revive Kagutaba.

1094
01:46:41,269 --> 01:46:46,866
That's just my speculation.

1095
01:46:47,675 --> 01:46:51,702
Now that Junko Ishii is dead

1096
01:46:52,413 --> 01:46:55,507
we will never know the truth.

1097
01:46:57,051 --> 01:47:03,854
I just hope that Kagutaba curse
has been enclosed.

1098
01:47:04,425 --> 01:47:08,088
I guess it's too late
for all of us.

1099
01:47:24,946 --> 01:47:28,245
"Camera Operator, Hisashi Miyajima"

1100
01:47:29,851 --> 01:47:34,311
"Produced by Masafumi Kobayashi"

1101
01:47:42,697 --> 01:47:45,723
2 days after "NOROI, The Curse"
finished...

1102
01:47:57,245 --> 01:47:59,907
The Kobayashi house burned down.

1103
01:48:01,816 --> 01:48:06,116
Later, his wife Keiko was found dead
in the remains.

1104
01:48:08,890 --> 01:48:12,053
But Kobayashi was not found.
He was declared missing.

1105
01:48:15,396 --> 01:48:17,227
3 days after the fire...

1106
01:48:17,698 --> 01:48:22,658
Mitsuo Hori, who had escaped from
the institution

1107
01:48:22,970 --> 01:48:24,870
was found dead.

1108
01:48:25,006 --> 01:48:26,974
"Picture of the Dead Man."

1109
01:48:28,142 --> 01:48:30,633
“The Mystery of Man
who died in the canal!"

1110
01:48:39,020 --> 01:48:44,981
May 19, 2004, a month later

1111
01:48:45,960 --> 01:48:49,862
a package was delivered to
Sugishobou Publishing.

1112
01:48:50,498 --> 01:48:52,762
There was no return address.

1113
01:48:53,734 --> 01:48:57,898
The sender's name was
Masafumi Kobayashi.

1114
01:49:01,008 --> 01:49:04,273
There was a video camera inside.

1115
01:49:07,114 --> 01:49:09,139
And inside the camera…

1116
01:49:10,518 --> 01:49:12,986
one videocassette was intact.

1117
01:49:33,040 --> 01:49:35,065
What's going on, Mr. Hori?

1118
01:49:36,477 --> 01:49:38,240
are you ok

1119
01:49:41,115 --> 01:49:42,082
Mr. Hori?

1120
01:49:42,316 --> 01:49:44,716
You...

1121
01:49:45,953 --> 01:49:49,719
You have been eaten...

1122
01:49:50,024 --> 01:49:52,515
of the worms!

1123
01:49:52,994 --> 01:49:54,552
are you

1124
01:49:54,695 --> 01:49:56,287
Excuse me?

1125
01:49:56,631 --> 01:50:00,863
Why don't you put the stone down?

1126
01:50:02,536 --> 01:50:07,667
I can hear Kana…
Her voice comes into my head…

1127
01:50:09,810 --> 01:50:14,406
- In my head... it says...
- What is it?

1128
01:50:15,383 --> 01:50:17,146
Kagutaba lives…

1129
01:50:17,818 --> 01:50:19,115
It lives!

1130
01:50:19,253 --> 01:50:20,914
what did you say

1131
01:50:22,023 --> 01:50:24,491
Kagutaba lives!

1132
01:50:24,625 --> 01:50:28,083
But Junko Ishii is dead now.

1133
01:50:28,262 --> 01:50:30,730
Kagutaba has gone now.

1134
01:50:31,032 --> 01:50:34,195
You should go back
to the institution.

1135
01:50:34,335 --> 01:50:36,166
You should go back.

1136
01:50:36,570 --> 01:50:38,094
Should I call the police?

1137
01:50:38,272 --> 01:50:40,467
No... Stop!

1138
01:50:42,576 --> 01:50:43,804
what are you doing

1139
01:50:47,381 --> 01:50:49,679
Stop! What you do!

1140
01:50:54,989 --> 01:50:57,958
stop!

1141
01:50:58,793 --> 01:51:00,488
There he is!

1142
01:51:01,362 --> 01:51:03,193
What do you want?

1143
01:51:11,272 --> 01:51:13,797
That's him!

1144
01:51:14,508 --> 01:51:16,032
He killed Cana…

1145
01:51:16,210 --> 01:51:17,802
Wait, just a minute.

1146
01:51:18,012 --> 01:51:19,843
The boy is also a victim.

1147
01:51:21,882 --> 01:51:24,544
Kana!

1148
01:51:24,719 --> 01:51:26,914
Wait a minute!

1149
01:51:27,221 --> 01:51:30,816
Calm.

1150
01:51:32,159 --> 01:51:33,854
You must listen to me.

1151
01:51:35,529 --> 01:51:37,360
Wait just a minute.

1152
01:51:39,467 --> 01:51:43,631
I will help you with
whatever you need.

1153
01:51:45,106 --> 01:51:50,669
Let the boy go, okay?

1154
01:51:50,811 --> 01:51:52,438
No!

1155
01:51:53,614 --> 01:51:58,517
stop!

1156
01:52:04,625 --> 01:52:07,287
are you ok

1157
01:52:16,237 --> 01:52:18,762
Kana!

1158
01:52:26,814 --> 01:52:29,908
Keiko!

1159
01:52:32,386 --> 01:52:34,217
Mr. Hori!

1160
01:52:42,596 --> 01:52:45,997
Hori?

1161
01:52:49,603 --> 01:52:52,197
Mr. Hori...

1162
01:53:25,539 --> 01:53:26,870
Keiko?

1163
01:53:33,614 --> 01:53:34,706
Keiko!

1164
01:54:01,775 --> 01:54:03,208
Keiko!

1165
01:54:07,047 --> 01:54:10,505
Keiko!

1166
01:54:15,756 --> 01:54:19,886
Keiko!

1167
01:54:22,463 --> 01:54:29,460
Keiko!

1168
01:54:33,407 --> 01:54:38,970
“Masafumi Kobayashi is
still missing today."
