The story follows a detective investigating a string of gruesome murders where an X is carved into the neck of each victim, and the murderer is found near the victim of each case and remembers nothing of the crime. It is considered a progenitor of the explosion of Japanese horror media in the late 1990s and early 2000s, preceding other releases like Hideo Nakata's Ring and Takashi Shimizu's Ju-On: The Grudge.[1]” NEXT WEEK: Pearl Website: http://www.bloodhauspod.com  Twitter: https://twitter.com/BloodhausPod Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bloodhauspod/ Email: bloodhauspod@gmail.com        Drusilla's art: https://www.sisterhydedesign.com/  Drusilla's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hydesister/  Drusilla's Letterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/drew_phillips/        Joshua's website: https://www.joshuaconkel.com/  Joshua's Twitter: https://twitter.com/JoshuaConkel   Joshua's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joshua_conkel/  Joshua's Letterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/joshuaconkel
