A writer retreats to a secluded suburban house to work on her new novel. But her attention is instead occupied by her archaeologist neighbor’s newly discovered mummy and a ghostly presence in her house.

Directo Kurosawa once again skilfully creates an atmosphere that plugs the saudience into a mire of dread as he allows his story unfold. Old film footage, two decrepit buildings and an impenetrable primal wilderness serve as the backdrop for this suspense-filled thriller. But, interestingly for this venture, Kurosawa takes a break from his familiar haunted Tokyo themes and drags the audience into a haunted swamp.
