Rinne (2005)

International English Title: Reincarnation.
Synopsis: A young woman lands a job as the lead in a film that tells the true story of a mass murder. She starts to have visions.
Appraisal: This film abuses of cheap frights based on loud sound effects (that nearly drove me deaf). The visuals, on the other hand, are stylish. The main plot has some ingenious ingredients, but the subplots not involving the protagonist are gratuitous and nonsensical (or maybe I am too stupid).
Rating: 36 (changed to 55 after second viewing; all the subplots make sense, really; I am too stupid; see post on Sept, 12)
