  • Synopsis
  • The Centuries-old Curse Is Trickling Down On Us This Summer....

    This might be a prelude for the end of human beings. In the year 200X, our vital water-supply source got polluted with something even the most advanced science couldn't identify. The worst-ever nightmare... relentless fear... This unprecedented aquatic horror drives the whole world into panic.

    You May Never Be Able To Drink Water Again....

    Water covers 70 percent of the earth surface. It also comprises as much percent of human bodies. Water is our lifeline. What if it turned into a liquid that kills? In a Japanese myth, there is cursed water called "death water." Can you imagine the consequences of the water entering into circulation for our everyday use? After consuming this water, one'd be haunted by an unquenchable thirst and grotesque delusions... until killing self by gouging out eyes. Is there any way to dispel the curse and halt the spread of the infection? Following such blockbuster horror movies as "Ringu" (also known as "Ring"), "Chakushin Ari" ("One Missed Call"), and "Juon" ("The Grudge"), "Mizuchi (Death Water)," authored by Hirofumi Tanaka, is the latest of Publisher Kadokawa's horror stories to be converted to a film version. Japanese Horror fans can never miss "Death Water," a spine-chilling mystery packed with a chain of shocking scenes.

    "Death Water" stars Haruka Igawa as news writer Kyoko. Igawa also appeared in "Ki No Umi" and "Daiteiden No Yoru Ni." Atsuro Watabe plays Kyoko's former husband. Watabe is known for his roles in "Keizoku: The Movie" and "Last Love First Love", and he is expanding his movie career into the global stage. Another lure of this movie is tons of ear-splitting screams let out by young actresses Nanase Hoshii, Mami Yamasaki, and Mio Suzuki. Other casts include Shin Yazawa, Hitomi Miwa, Yurei Yanagi, and Denden.

    The Kanto region is experiencing mid-scale earthquakes one after another. Newspaper correspondent Kyoko Togakure (Haruka Igawa) visits a nursing home in the outskirts of Tokyo. She finds the dead body of a resident. It was an apparent suicide. He's holding a piece of paper with the mystifying word "Death Water" written on it. Nearby was a blood-stained scissors, and his eyes are squashed. She has no idea that this death is just the beginning of a horrendous nightmare.

    Kyoko and Yuichi (Atsuro Watabe) divorced soon after the birth of their first child Yohei. Kyoko is now taking care of the baby child single-handedly.

    Kyoko hears university professor Morikawa (Yurei Yanagi) killed himself. She first met the professor a half year ago while covering a case involving a religious group. The professor said at the time he was doing research on the cursed water known as "death water." The professor disappeared and is rumored to be living on the street. Kyoko learns he committed suicide after boring out his own eyes. Scribbled on all pages of his notebook is the same message "Never drink death water."
