This film is the first of two films which delves into the curse of mysterious phone calls which lead to the untimely and groteseque deaths of several young people. Their connection to each other: Their cell phones. Directed by Takashi Miike, this film is above average, and enjoyable. [To me at least]. The film opens with a young girl receiving a phone messsage which is from the future. However, it's not good news she hears, but her own death. Eventually other friends receive the same type of messages that will eventually lead to their deaths. The angry spirit which is causing these deaths will not be stopped.(15)
