Synopsis and My Review
A writer moves to a remote island with his daughter and young son. After settling into their new home, a neighbor arrives to welcome them and give them a breakdown of the local rules; most important: do not go outside when the island's siren starts wailing. (Source)

For those who have yet to watch the movie and is intending to, please do not read on. Having watched Abe Hiroshi in Trick, I thought I could see more of him in this movie but I was totally wrong! Although his name appears to be one of the leads, but it's the character that he portray plays a bigger part in the movie. At the beginning of the movie, you can see Abe already going crazy (insane to be exact) and I had thought that it going to be a recap but again, I was wrong. Without giving a outcome of what happen to Abe, we were brought to the scene showing Yui and her family leaving Tokyo for a more secluded place, the island where Abe was at when he gone insane. Anyway, at the moment that I saw her brother, I already started to think that the brother was not the one who is sick and I was right!

Summary of the show is:
a father brought her daughter to an island to help her recover from an incident but instead, the girl became hysterical after she started to believe the myth circulating by the folk living on the island is true.
