Nami, for the first time, discovers that she has a twin sister and finds several horrible mummified young bodies. Suddenly, they are attacked and almost strangled. Nami eventually finds that her twin sister is not really a sister after all...Nami (Megumi Okina) creates elaborate, detailed, fantastic artwork based on her dreams, and she draws on the same raw emotions and images as she begins work on a series of graphics for a new video game.

 An interesting movie that has an original way of being directed. Predictable story, but worth a look once if you're used to strange Japanese horror films. 6/10-- (UHM)
