Flip-phone terror in Takashi Miike’s ONE MISSED CALL (2003) w/ 2000s J-horror pre-show

October 8 : 7:00 pm 9:00 pm

“Provides an excellent distillation of J-Horror its best: silly yet serious, and altogether a new kind of spooky.” – Cinapse

A J-horror gem from the legendary director of horror classics like Audition and Ichi the Killer, Takashi Miike! Student Yoko (Anna Nagata, Battle Royale) receives a voicemail from her future self that ends with her own death scream. Two days later, Yoko dies in a horrific train collision. As the mysterious phone curse spreads, claiming more young lives, Yoko’s friend Yumi joins forces with detective Hiroshi, whose sister met the same gruesome fate. But can they unravel the mystery before the clock runs out on the next victim – Yumi herself? Tapping into the same nerve-shredding vein as Ringu and Ju-On: The Grudge, One Missed Call is a modern, tech-focused twist on Japanese folk-horror. Now newly restored and available for the first time since its original theatrical release!

Plus, come out before the film for a 2000s J-Horror pre-show starting at 6:30 pm, featuring selections from the great series Tales of Terror from Tokyo.
