Synopsis:
Over two decades after terrifying the world with the ghosts of Toshio and Kayako with Ju-On: The Grudge, legendary filmmaker Takashi Shimizu returns to his J-Horror roots with the thrilling diptych Sana and Sana: Let Me Hear.
Starring J-Pop supergroup 'Generations from Exile Tribe' playing fictionalized versions of themselves, Sana sees the band members discover a mysterious cassette tape containing only a simple melody. But this earworm comes with sinister consequences, as anyone who hears it the tune becomes compelled to constantly hum it and finds themselves plagued with horrifying ghostly visions. The band, their manager and a world-weary detective must team up to uncover the mystery behind the tape and save themselves from falling under its malignant spell. In Sana: Let Me Hear, a group of high school students are taking extra classes during the summer holidays when one of them suddenly jumps off the school roof in a grim reminder of a similar incident that happened at the same school 30 years prior. Substitute teacher Honoka discovers that both events revolve around an elusive girl named Sana, and the chilling secret behind the cassette tape she recorded.
Takashi Shimizu delivers a one-two punch of magnificent J-Horror mayhem that combines his affinity for elliptical storytelling with smart metanarrative scriptwriting that updates the genre's tropes for a whole new generation of horror fans.
