I always find Japanese horror films fascinating and this one is no exception. I notice its 2007 so a few years ago and no reviews for it on this website, I wonder why. I have just watched it on DVD.Its not really a horror film and its barely a thriller but its a lot more than a boring drama. Misaki is the Japanese lady in the movie who develops a relationship with Koichi, a handsome guy from Okinawa whom she goes to visit.I have yet to reconcile the opening beach scene of Misaki and her girl-friend with the events which unfold in the film and what she says about Koichi.The film is actually about Sanaae, the red haired estranged wife of Jinsel whose behaviour is bizarre throughout the film. They have a Son called Jinta who gets bitten by a snake while running away and a chain of events occur which then create absorbing viewing.The story of the dead cat in the bag in the forest is also a puzzling one in the context of the film and I am also still trying to work why its called 'Twilight Phantom' but the film is entertaining and certainly worth watching.
