This film has a fairly interesting opening scene...and the buck stops there. A nothing-much-going-on ghost story, comes off rushed and undeveloped. Susan George and hubby move to Japan with their young daughter into a house haunted by the ancient specters of a tragic love triangle. The usual ghostly goings-on occur, with laughable and embarrassing results.
...beware of howling crabs! This turd gets a whopping 2 out of 10.
