About The Scary Folklore: Ura no Sho
Five years have passed since 12 members of the choir were brutally murdered in the music room of Seiran Jogakuin, a prestigious school in the suburbs of Tokyo. A TV news crew visits the scene to clarify the rumor that children's songs can be heard from coming from the closed school. Accompanied by Kyoko, an acoustic analyst, the team begins their own investigation into the incident, but one after another, strange things begin to happen to the staff...
Directed by Osamu Fukutani, The Scary Folklore: Ura no Sho leans on a strong ensemble — Chinami Ishizaka, Toshinobu Matsuo, Mikako Tabe — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about horror titles of 2007.
