Synopsis

An American nurse living and working in Tokyo is exposed to a mysterious supernatural curse, one that locks a person in a powerful rage before claiming their life and spreading to another victim.

The Fear Score take

A curse that spreads like a stain, this is fear built from proximity rather than pursuit. Shimizu withholds the safety of daylight, of empty rooms, of the space behind you. The dread accumulates quietly, then arrives with a sound your body recognizes before your mind does. You are never given room to exhale.
