SILK.
===

This film has some advanced theoretical science in regard to worm holes, electromagnetic waves and Anti gravity.

It deals with Japanese scientist, Hashimoto who is the inventor of the 'Menger Sponge'. When used it traps all free energy within a small radius.
With it he can walk on ceilings, slow down time and even trap 'Ghosts'.

The film starts with the hideous deaths of some residents of a block of apartments. The specialist team is brought in and soon they have a ghost trapped, the ghost of a young boy with a sad and disturbing past.
But soon the team start dieing, who is he escaping from the impenetrable room. What is he wordlessly saying?
What horrors is he about to inflict on the world? Does the ghost and the Menger sponge hold the secret of immortality? And how will Hashimoto turn it to his advantage?

A superb movie and right from the start you are hooked. It has a continual creeping atmosphere throughout the entire length of the movie.
The pace never slackens and you will be drawn in and held, even the subtitles will not make the slightest difference.

And to further aid you, here is the DVD information:
Language: Japanese
Subtitles: English
Region: Region 1
Number of discs: 1
Classification: Unrated
Run Time: 109 minutes
