In this film, terror comes from water. How to give the "water of terror" an image is a difficult proposition, but Hideo Nakata gave the audience an exquisite answer. The film is full of details about water, from the continuous rain to the tears of Shumei and Yuko. However, these ingenious designs do not seem to be prepared for horror, nor are they merely elaborations of the original work. On the contrary, it is quite interesting to tamper with the novel and occasionally jump out of dissonance that has nothing to do with horror. In the film, the expansion and overflow of water allude to the collapse of Shumei's life assumptions. In addition, there is no judgment of value in the film, and the process of revenge does not magically treat the killings. The world is no longer a stage to show the struggle between good and evil, but emphasizes the laws of each world. legitimize revenge

The novel is wonderful, it is a short story. It's not easy to write a movie for more than an hour. So the movie is filled with a lot of silent shots, the darkness is deep, and the water that cannot reflect light is spreading. The difference from the original is the ending. The ending of the movie is very touching.

I saw it a long time ago when I fell in a water tower or something.
