WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

A young woman named Julia (Lutz) becomes concerned when her boyfriend Holt (Roe) becomes increasingly obsessed with a mysterious videotape that is said to kill anyone who watches it after seven days. Naturally, Julia watches the film and soon finds herself on the receiving end of a curse that could very well kill her off in a week’s time, unless she does something about it…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

The reboot of the remake of the original Japanese horror film gives audiences a whole new spin on the popular story of the killer videotape and the creepy long-haired girl who occupies it.
