Japanese ‘The Curse’ Described as ‘The Ring’ for the TikTok Age [Teaser]
From The Coven, the sales agent behind the Terrifier trilogy, comes the Japanese haunter The Curse, which is set to have its UK premiere at FrightFest in London this coming March.
Directed by Kenichi Ugana, The Curse is described as “a shocking satire on the terrors hiding in addictive internet algorithms,” calling it “The Ring updated for the TikTok age.”
In the film…
“After seeing her friend’s disturbing social media posts, beauty salon receptionist Riko intervenes but fails to prevent her from dying a mysterious, violent death. Convinced there is more to the story than a suicide, Riko dives into a world of memes, influencers, and posting for attention. As the pile of bodies grows, and Riko faces her own possible curse, she and her friends travel to Taiwan to find the community horror source of this demonic social media killer.”
