When a washed-up horror director and his assistant venture into a secluded mountain house to shoot their next project, they find an unexpected fan in the reclusive Maria.

With each passing hour, the forest tightens its grip, and the line between director and subject, captor and captive, dissolves into madness.

User Reviews
ScaryFan88 – 7/10
“I loved the slow burn and the creepy atmosphere. Kôji Shiraishi is always good for some genuine unease, and the setting really gets under your skin. It's not perfect, but it kept me on edge.”
GoreHound – 5/10
“Honestly, I was expecting more scares. The premise is great, but it drags in the middle and the ending left me a bit flat. Some effective moments, but not his best work.”
NightTerror – 6/10
“There's something really disturbing about the way the woman idolizes the director – it felt all too real. The acting is solid, especially Miwako Kakei, but the plot twists were predictable. Still, a decent watch for J-horror fans.”
FlickFanatic – 8/10
“This one really got under my skin. The way the director's past films come back to haunt him is a great meta touch, and the final act had me holding my breath. Highly underrated!”
