A reporter is told to investigate the case of a young boy who has been found dead in a rural part of Japan. The thing is he has no internal organs and as such may be the victim of organ trafficking. So he traces the boy back to a village.
Once there it transpires that most of the children disappeared mysteriously some 35 years ago and the school the young boy was supposed to be attending is now a deserted museum living as a memory to those that once attended classes there.
To say any more could be a plot spoiler, but once you get what is going on - then this is a run of the mill horror with a few scares along the way and some pretty good acting. But by and large there is nothing much new here. If you like a supernatural horror then there may be something here for you, and I was far from disappointed but I was not raving about how original it was. Also this is one of those that is great just once - so best to go for the rental option - and sit back and enjoy (or not if you find it too scary).
