There are some series of terror that if one goes to see, for example, the fourth film without having seen the previous one, one is lost. Well, maybe (or worse) what goes to waste are a few nods to previous gruesome deaths or chilling characters.
No, that’s not the case circle 4Hisashi Kimura’s film.
In the plot, characters who watch a “cursed” video – as happened in the previous ones – end up dying, everywhere in Japan. Ayaka Ichijo (Fuka Koshiba) is a student with an IQ of 200 (!). And she will investigate the mysterious deaths when Futaba, her younger sister, watches the video for fun, and her life begins to be in danger.
But luckily Ayaka Ichijo has an explanation for everything.
Previously, deaths occurred after the passage of a week. And why instead of being after seven days, I’m now at 24 hours? HEY?
The future victim hallucinates and sees a familiar transformed into Sadako. Here he is, again, and without making too much of a mess, that character dressed in white, who drags himself (or not) with very long, blackened hair, which can even come out of a kind of cistern.
“Organisms that adapt to the environment survive.” “Killing the host kills the virus”. “VHS is old, it needs a new support to survive” are sentences said at any moment, as if to give an idea of what is happening and, even worse, of what will happen.
There is nothing worse
Because there’s nothing more disappointing in the cinema than being told what’s going to happen, before it happens.
“It’s like a virus, spreading it on social networks will weaken it and stop killing,” they say, as a solution. That would be herd immunity.
It will be like this?
But Ai, despite copying and showing it, died after 24 hours.
Ayaka Ichijo is not alone in finding the solution. Kanden-san, a mysterious follower, wearing a mask, throws him tips. And of course there is also Kenshin, the number one spiritualist master, “The prince of divination”, a kind of semi-chanta who takes advantage of these deaths with his appearances on television.
The film at times seems to wink 24the series with kiefer sutherlandin which a minute hand occasionally appeared on the screen, marking the passage of time.
It’s not even that it lasts that long. With just over an hour and a half, that’s enough for him to hit the good scares of him.
