I rarely see current Japanese movie. But I have an interest to this movie.

[SIZE="3"]Death Note[/SIZE]


Light Yagami is a bright young high school student who has until recently led a boring and uneventful life. That changed very quickly when he found a strange notebook with the title "Death Note" lying on the ground one day in 2003. After realizing that the "Death Note" was a Shinigami's tool with the power to kill anyone whose name was written on its pages, Light decided to use it to "cleanse" the world of evil. And soon the many unexplainable deaths of criminals reported.......

It's weird isn't it? Check this official site and trailer. http://wwws.warnerbros.co.jp/deathnote/


Shinigami = The god of death

That sounds really interesting! Definitely a potential "monkey's paw" situation. I hope it will be released with subtitles in the U.S.

I guess so too. The idea is like "The Twilight Zone". So I guess Hollywood will remake this like "The Ring" and "Ju-On".

That sounds like a good one Kenji, I do hope they sub-tittle the movie in English. Otherwise we'll just "rip-off" another Japanese movie idea! :p

Nah! This movie is not Michael Mann's type. Maybe he won't try to make horror films anymore! Big Grin

POSSIBLE SPOILERS













This movie is based on a Japanese manga by the same name.

At first the idea was pretty interesting; in the first few issues you really get hooked into the story, especially how Light outsmarts the police who try to track him down. It got quite boring after L died though.

Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
