The story line was perfect and surprising. You will be kept on the edge of your seat and wondering what will happen next as you realize that what you think is reality is not. With that being said this is not your everyday slasher film or your Friday the 13ths and Scream. In a nutshell it's not mindless killing but has thought and dept. Though, it sticks to the usual supernatural Asian horror theme.

I originally thought the film would be more gory and violence but it's the total opposite. There is barely any blood or gore so all the faint-hearted are safe.

The whole concept of reincarnation in the film is that you are forced to repeat your previous life over and over again. After all, "Death is only the beginning." Nagisa Sugiura lands the role of a little girl murdered by her father in the hotel. Soon Nagisa realizes that the murdered girl is the one from her visions. As filming continues Nagisa progresses through the whole murder as her agent watches an old discovered film of the original murder filmed by the murderer himself. At every turn Nagisa sees the youngest victim and her eerie doll and eventually that victim's brother. Simultaneously a college student studying cryptomnesia and Yuka, a girl who had auditioned for Nagisa's role, discover that they are reincarnated victims as well and met their destined faiths.

Plot
A J-horror film about an Japanese actress having strange visions about a murder that took place over 40 years ago as she stars in the film depicting the murder and all eleven victims.
