The corpse found in the well...

Mr. Yamamura...

No thanks.

Either way, I only knew her when I was little.

This well was on the property by Professor Ikuma.

It was sealed when the batch was sold thirty years ago.

It has never been opened since.

In this case, It’s definitely Sadako.

But it does not appear nor on the civil status of his mother

nor on that of Ikuma.

0 passed Ikuma?

He is dead just after the sale of the lot.

So I'm the only survivor?

In any case, burn it! And throw his ashes to the wind.

This is out of the question!

This is a matter very strange.

One of the people who found the body is dead

and the other has disappeared.

And there is something else... the date of death.

According to the autopsy, it only goes back one or two years.

How!?

She would therefore have remained alive all this time...

in this well...

for 30 years.

We talk a lot of a certain "cursed video"...

0yes.

Do you know what's inside?

They say that a scary woman suddenly appears...

and that she declares: "You're going to die in a week".

It's on TV at night. Then the phone rings.

At night, on which channel?

They say it's a local channel, on the Izu side.

Izu?

It's not a bit annoying to enter this game?

What game?

Advise that the video must be shown before 7 days to be saved...

It will be necessary that the message gets on TV.

- Has anyone found Mrs. Asakawa? - No.

The police called.

Mrs. Asakawa is not here?

She went away.

We talk a lot of a certain "cursed video"...

Do you know what's inside?

They say that a scary woman suddenly appears...

and that she declares:

"You're going to die in a week."

Just a moment!

Do you know Mrs. Asakawa?

We can't reach her.

A man named Takayama died.

Takayama?

Mrs. Asakawa's ex-husband...

The police also came. She's been gone for so long.

And they entered?

No. They didn't ask for anything.

You are welcome.

Miss Takano...

What is that?

A cassette...

Dad, forgive me!

I had to save Yoichi...

How are you?

The last time I saw her, she asked me about a video...

She is a single mother which only deals with news items.

By the way! His kid?

Let's go see his school.

Ms. Asakawa?

She came out.

It's the police.

Mrs. Asakawa's father was found dead this morning.

- 0� is the boss? - Over there.

Chief!

0yes?

- 0muta, from the Shizuoka brigade. - Thank you for coming.

- Were you able to contact his daughter? - No, impossible.

- And the identity of the corpse in the well? - Unknown.

0n sent it to remodeling.

When we have remodeled his face, we'll go see the neighbors...

It was he who found the old man.

One moment...

Want to see it?

This is no ordinary death.

Were you making a copy?

0yes.

0 we wonder if there is a link to this.

Reiko, I destroyed the video. So you no longer have to worry.

He is absent. For more than ten days.

What is it?

Nothing.

Why are you looking Ms. Asakawa?

I would like to know why Mr. Takayama is dead.

I will continue. I will call you if I find something.

Ciao.

0yes?

Police. Sorry to come so late.

It's about Mr. Takayama...

It's good you who found him dead?

0yes.

Can I come in?

You are welcome.

It's true, Mr. Takayama was a math teacher...

And you were...?

His assistant.

I see.

Miss Takano,

Yamamura Sadako, Does that mean anything to you?

No.

And Yamamura Shizuko, Sadako's mother?

No.

Ikuma Heihachiro?

No.

Mr. Takayama and Ms. Asakawa were looking for something, right?

I don't know anything.

Really?

Today, Mrs. Asakawa's father was found dead.

In the same state than Mr. Takayama. See?

Go home.

0n found a body in a well.

An unidentified woman, died a year or two ago.

But the well had been sealed thirty years ago.

Can you imagine that? 30 years walled in absolute darkness?

She no longer had her nails on the fingers.

We found them buried in the walls of the well.

- She must have tried to escape... - Get out!

Heard.

If you have news from Mrs. Asakawa... contact me.

I'm sorry... This matter is so unusual!

This video... what is it?

Nothing...

That's not it.

You live nearby, Mr. Professor?

I concentrate better here than at home.

It turns.

Okay, let's start again where we were...

So you have to copy it and show it during the week.

Otherwise, 7 days later, at the same time...

Since we must copy it, Is there an original?

So where does this video come from?

It is said that she was there, like that.

0n all have cassettes whose content has been forgotten.

By putting them away, we can find it.

- How do we recognize it? - It seems that it is obvious.

- Has anyone seen her? - Some have it.

As they are afraid, they pass it among friends.

Did you see her?

This video... can I have it?

Okay.

A moment.

See for the cassette.

Ms. Asakawa had to track these four.

They are all dead 7 days later. At the same time.

Amazing, right?

This Tomoko was Mrs. Asakawa's niece.

One of her friends saw her die.

A certain Kurahashi...

Kurahashi Masami.

What has become of her?

She can no longer speak. She was hospitalized...

at the C.H.U. From your university.

The teacher does not care of patient privacy.

Please don't ask him only medical questions.

Very good.

This way, please.

Miss Kurahashi.

How do you feel?

Don't want to go out?

The doctor says the fresh air

would do you good.

Still afraid of TV?

Have no fear. I will put screens to protect you.

Okay?

Doctor,

here they are.

Enchanted. My name is Kawajiri. Take a seat.

At our place,

we put photos on patient records.

- Do you know why? - In case they run away?

Indeed. Precisely.

They can change so much

that their family would not recognize them.

We photograph them upon their arrival.

But when we wanted photograph this patient...

we used our device...

but there was a strange phenomenon.

We call this "mental photo".

Something about the mental state affects the sensitivity of the film.

There have already been cases in the past.

So... these photos too...?

0n also made him touch negatives.

The name is clear.

SADA

You must think I'm weird.

The whole university consider myself as such.

And Mr. Takayama...?

What intuition! He alone understood me.

He had studied medicine before getting into math.

Did you know he was dead?

It is a great loss.

You didn't even come At his funeral!

Does that suit you?

Take your time.

Gently...

we have plenty of time.

What is it?

Is that wrong?

Miss Kurahashi!

Take her!

Tomoko...

Help!

Take her!

Help me!

It seems that it was the first time she spoke.

This report from Ms. Asakawa, are you going to continue it?

0yes.

It would be better not.

For what?

Believe me...

Did the patient speak to you?

Wait!

Pardon.

Don't tell anyone about it.

This power that you have...

is of no use.

Yoichi...

Is that you, Yoichi?

Where do you live?

Can't you speak?

Sit there.

It's sinister, isn't it?

Sit down.

I want to go to class.

I'm hungry.

Well...?

Do you remember Masami?

The young girl who saw Tomoko die.

0yes.

At the C.H.U., she approached a TV

and there was a strange image.

What image?

The image of a well.

But just for a moment.

Is that all?

0yes.

Did you see her too?

If only that, have no fear.

But avoid seeing this image again.

Additionally, Masami can no longer speak.

And then?

If this continues, Yoichi...

So what should I do? Have him committed?

What are you getting involved in?

I'm sorry.

Leave.

Can I come back from time to time? To see Yoichi...

Hi!

Here.

Did you get it?

20,000 yen?

Actually... I looked at it last night.

Mr. 0kazaki, are you going to take a good look at it?

Of course. Otherwise, it wouldn't make any sense.

Is that promised?

Promised! Trust me!

And the money!

Don't forget!

Well done!

Attention! I'm going!

Are you already studying that?

Why were you at the station, the other day?

Did your mom scold you?

Is anyone there?

The lady with long hair

At the table!

Wash your hands.

I thought he no longer spoke

to punish me. He was injured.

But no...

After our return from my father's house,

the TV came on when Yoichi approached him.

Could you speak to Dr. Kawajiri?

Maybe Yoichi is like his patient...

It seems that you saw Ms. Asakawa...

I didn't call him.

It's 0kazaki, the guy from the TV, who told me about your patient.

He must come too.

I'm going to try an experiment. It could be useful for the kid.

Follow me.

This way.

What are you going to do?

It's tap water.

The absorption rate...

is approximately of this order.

Do as you did earlier. Focus on the water.

That's enough.

The properties of water have changed.

She transmitted to the water a certain energy.

The same phenomenon only for photos.

Everything is just transfer energy.

If I reverse the order of the transfer, the energy will come out of it.

That's what I'm going to try.

Sit down.

- Do you use video? - Of course. You saw her.

Stop! The image of this well...!

- A well? - Everyone who saw him is dead.

But you are very alive!

There you are!

Here is the new cassette. Can you run it?

Masami...

this experience is dangerous! If everyone sees...

There is something in my head...

The tape!

Even if this video existed, she couldn't kill.

It's fear that kills.

If I prove it, the energy of fear will dissipate

and fear will leave her.

Come out if you want.

No.

Let's go.

It's like the photo.

You relax and you look at the camera.

What is this noise?

This woman...!

Doctor!

Miss Kurahashi!

By what right...?

You've had lots of calls...

"�It's been 7 days today"... It's the girl from the other day, right?

Oh yes... I'm going to call him.

Good night.

- Yes, Sawaguchi... - Is that you, Kanae?

0yes.

It's me, 0kazaki.

I saw the video.

Tremendous! I was so scared!

What a lack of confidence!

That’s what it did just a week...

Listen...

you remember of the strange woman?

0 yes... the one who was in the mirror?

- Hello! - Yes, that's it. That’s right.

There was no reflection of a child, just for a moment?

Just before the image of the well.

What did you do with the video?

I threw it away. It was really too much...

Better not to show it anymore.

It's too late now. You're going to show it off, right?

You have to show it to someone!

Otherwise you will die!

Heard.

Ciao.

We found the woman in the mirror.

Tragic Death during a clairvoyance session

Professor Ikuma held a public meeting

which earned him to be excluded of the scientific community.

The Fatal Clairvoyant Yamamura Shizuko with Dr. Ikuma

Shizuko...

We can't kill by simple concentration.

Dr. Ikuma said that "the idea was a living being",

and "thought, an energy which could materialize".

So, even on video.

Even in 30 years in a well...

A confined thought for 30 years,

it’s resentment.

Everyone saw it.

They died from seeing her,

Takayama and the father from Mrs. Asakawa?

Why even the father...?

The kid must have seen her...

Did he see her too?

He must be like my patient.

We can't let this happen!

0� is Mrs. Asakawa? Answer!

Kanae!

Come!

It's just an interrogation routine. Relax.

A moment. I'll come back.

Don't come!

No! Go away!

Are you deaf? Go away!

What is happening?

Mom!

Yoichi!

It's a specter!

A specter!

She is cursed! Murderer!

Yoichi!

Dad!

Shouldn't Yoichi To be spared?

The one you hold in your arms is no longer your son...

No!

Stop! No!

Okay.

Why doesn't it disappear?

How did the rumor start?

It is anxiety that generates the rumors.

Or then, the desire to be possessed through anxiety...

Mr. Professor...

What is it?

Let's continue.

Does this remind you of someone?

It looks like him... To the point of being annoying.

We're going to take photos.

That's enough.

Sadako!

Why did you let me live?

If we put you on a show your mother and you,

It's my fault!

You want me to give you... to the sea?

Is that it?

Do you know where Mr. Yamamura lives?

There are a lot of Yamamuras around here.

I'm looking for the house where Shizuko lived.

Ah, that house...

Yamamura Inn

Good morning!

It's here.

Pardon. Did I wake you up?

Say, do you want to promise me something?

What?

That you won't do it again never again

to scare someone.

It's really terrifying, you know!

Are you on my side?

But yes! Of course!

As for Sadako, I put her back in the sea.

It's the only thing that I could do.

Besides, that's what Shizuko had wanted for her.

When the day comes, she left alone

to give birth to Sadako.

She came back with a flat stomach.

She said she threw the baby away to the sea.

But the next day she came back with the baby in her arms.

What is this noise?

The cave where Sadako was born.

This is "The River of Gifts".

At high tide, we led there the undesirables,

so that the sea carries them away.

Who was Sadako's father?

Is anyone there?

0yes?

Miss Takano came down at your place?

No.

Good. You will have good a room...?

Just a moment!

Sadako!

But you are dead!

You are dead!

You remember your dream of this night?

Good. Think of your mother.

That's enough.

Come.

What dominates him...

it is the spirit of anger.

It’s probably this anger who calls Sadako. Despite him.

My equipment will arrive today.

I will try to make it disappear.

Specters do not exist. Nor beyond.

Takayama did not agree...

Will it be strong enough?

What else can we do? What if the police came...?

It channels energy. It is the best medium.

Leave it to me.

Are you as strong as Takayama?

0yes.

This does not mean that you will be stronger than the kid.

Unless I watch the video...

Heard. All we need is water.

Water?

Sea water does not absorb as well.

We need a lot of pure water to absorb Sadako's resentment.

This system allows us to channel towards you

the energy it generates so that you dissolve it in water.

And Sadako will disappear.

- Good. Are we going there? - 0 yes.

Take a seat.

Remember that I am on your side. 0K?

Let's go.

Close your eyes.

Remember what you saw.

What did you see?

That's it. Your dad and your mother are dead.

You are all alone. What did you see?

Do you want me to tell you? Your mother is dead

Because of her.

She's the one who betrayed your mother!

It's true. It's my fault.

Tremendous! Just what you need!

Dr. Kawajiri, what is this...?

I am connected to the beyond...

Sadako!

Take me!

Please...

take me.

Let's end this for good!

How are you?

Don't give up!

Let me down.

Sea water games...

Specters in sight...

Hang on the wall!

I can't do it alone.

Hang in there!

Hold on!

I can't take it anymore.

Take it.

Mr. Professor!

Yoichi...give me your fear.

Given!

Give it to me!

Get back! Grab the rope!

Don't look back!

Why are you the only one to be saved?

Is your fear gone?

0yes. And yours?

Mine?

Not quite, perhaps.

And 0kazaki, where is he?

Hospitalized for a while.

Hospitalized?

0 is the key to this thing?

Isn't that the one?

Mr. 0kazaki, we will take you in photo. Look over here.

Look ahead!

THANKS.
