Review:

One of my all time favourite horror movies. Along with Ringu made me love asian movies. It's so scary and so mysterious at the same time, and that ringtone scared me for real.

Alternate Ending:

The film has an alternate ending where after Yumi spits the candy into Yamashita's mouth, it cuts to Tendo, the exorcist, wearing casts on his arms and legs. He gets a missed call on his cell phone, but unlike the other victims, his message is from a few seconds in the future and not three days. He's then killed in a humorous fashion when a metal basin falls on his head.
