The CinePearl Take

Dark Water is a 2002 Japanese film that blends horror and fantasy — expect scares and a tense atmosphere and magic, myth and invented worlds. Hideo Nakata directs and the script comes from Hideo Nakata. Asami Mizukawa and Hitomi Kuroki are among the leads. Made in Japan, it is a natural pick for anyone exploring Japanese-language films. Released in 2002, it has had time to build an audience and word of mouth. At 101 minutes, it is a comfortable evening's watch.
