Takashi Shimizu’s sequel to his international hit delivers more of the indelibly creepy atmosphere and tension-enhancing nonlinear style that made the original a J-horror sensation. Here, the curse of the murdered family introduced in the original film continues to spread as it infects the life of a famed horror actress (Noriko Sakai) starring in a TV show set in the home where they died. Adding to her fears are the strange circumstances surrounding her pregnancy—exactly who or what is growing inside her?
