Late 1960s
Somewhere in Tokyo
I can't believe it.
I won't permit it.
You want to marry that girl?
You belong to me.
And I won't give you to anyone.
Wow, there's so much blood.
It hurts...
It's me.
Bloody Muscle Builder to Hell
30 years later
Hello, Wakabayashi speaking.
Yes... Mika?
It's been a long time.
Huh, what photo?
A photo of the house?
It's somewhere around here.
Oh, OK. I'll look for it.
So your job is going well?
I've been having trouble finishing the article
on haunted houses I told you about before.
Did you collect all of those photos
with ghosts in them?
No, I Photoshopped them all.
I see.
What else do you write?
Mostly features for girls' magazines...
What about you, Naoto?
Has anything changed since then?
Oh, yeah. I quit my job.
When?
A year ago.
Shortly after we broke up.
So what are you doing now?
Not much... Oh, I took up
muscle-building six months ago.
A man's gotta have muscles.
You're really not doing anything?
My parents died young.
I don't have anyone to look after.
I plan to take it easy for a while.
I see.
Hey, let's find somewhere to sit.
Here's the ghost photo
that you wanted.
Yeah, this is the one.
It gave me the chills
the first time I saw it.
Is this house still standing?
Yeah, it's pretty beat-up though.
Do you live there?
No, I didn't even know about it
until my dad died.
I don't know the specifics, but my dad
had it built quite a long time ago.
I found one other photo from
around the same time.
The man...
That's my dad.
He looks just like you.
Who's the woman..
your mom?
No, I have no idea.
Probably an old girlfriend.
Got a light?
No.
Did you know that one cigarette can
eliminate 25-75mg of vitamin C in your body?
Not good if you want to stay pretty.
Hey, will you show me inside
the house sometime?
I want it to be the focus of
my article.
I'd advise against it.
That weekend, we went to the
troubled house in Mika's car.
Mika brought along a psychic
named Mizoguchi.
Is the house a shambles inside?
No, it's clean.
- Have a can of coffee.
- Thank you.
Hey, have you ever been
in the house?
Yeah, I took my barbell there
last month.
I thought I'd clean it up
and use it as a gym.
There's enough space there for
a lot of training equipment.
That's a fine idea.
Exercising with ghosts
is a good hobby.
There's no such thing as ghosts.
I take it that you don't see them.
If I can't see them,
I don't care.
It's no different
as if they're not there.
Someone is watching us from
the house.
I feel the gaze.
I sense a malevolent presence.
There's something inside that house.
The lights still work.
Don't bother to take off your shoes.
What's in there?
The basement.
Take a look.
Maybe later.
This is the kitchen and over there is
the living room. Further on is the bathroom.
Amazing.
This is it.
"Amazing... This is it."
Cut it out.
It's really musty in here.
Don't let in any light from
the outside.
I'll have to beg your forgiveness, sir.
Do you feel anything?
I feel a presence throughout
the house.
There's something about this room.
Perhaps a young woman.
She harbors a bitter grudge.
Let's try to summon her.
Come out, I know you're here.
Come out.
Welcome home.
What happened?
I don't remember.
I don't like situations like this.
Damn, I don't know what's going on.
Should we call a mechanic?
Let's get the psychic to fix it
when he wakes up.
What? I doubt he can.
Sure; he'll use his supernatural powers.
Are you all right?
A clock fell on your head.
I thought you were dead.
A clock?
I was standing in the
middle of the room.
What's wrong with the car?
The engine won't start.
- It's the girl.
- What?
It was that woman standing
behind you in the room.
She grabbed your shoulder.
You say some strange things.
She won't let us leave.
She dropped the clock.
Give me the key to the house.
- You want to go back?
- This time by myself. The key.
I'll find out who she is.
I'll go, too.
It's best I go alone.
I can concentrate better that way.
I think you want something
from me.
I'd be happy to talk to you.
My body is rotten.
I'm going to use yours.
Something's wrong.
He's been in there a long time.
Yeah, it's been around 20 minutes.
It's been longer than that.
Let's go take a look.
- Yeah, but he might get angry.
- Something could have happened.
That guy's a nuisance.
Let's go.
Mr. Mizoguchi, we're going home!
- Naoto!
- I know.
Hey, where are you?
We should call the police...
I've been waiting...
Do it quickly, while I'm still alive.
Dammit!
It's no good,
I can't break it down.
It's good to be back in
a fresh body.
You're back.
I've been waiting for you
for so long.
Don't worry, I'll be gentle.
I'm going to rip your face off!
Naoto!
Keep him in there!
Let me out!
What do you see in that girl?
Please let me out!
What's he doing?
- What's going on here?
- How should I know?!
What should we do?
Let's just get out of here.
Let me out! Let me out!
Shit! Let me out!
Let me out!
It's no use, it won't budge.
What's going on here?
The house seems to be possessed
by a mysterious force.
What if we try screaming?
- I don't think anyone would hear us.
- Then what are we going to do?!
How the hell should I know,
you're always...
Naoto!
Dad?
Naoto, Mizoguchi is possessed
by a past lover of mine.
What?
I killed her in this house.
You killed her?
She was sick in the head.
I didn't have a choice.
I didn't plan it.
I've got it. She's mistaken you
for your father.
She might...
Perhaps.
On the other hand,
she might not care who you are.
What does she want?
She was insane.
She's probably enjoying herself.
Sooner or later,
you'll die a gruesome death.
No kidding.
We can't open the door to leave.
What should we do?
That woman doesn't have
that much power.
Her power is coming from the psychic.
She's using his physical power.
If she doesn't have a body,
the woman's spirit will be unable to act.
If you want to get out of here alive,
you must chop him into little pieces.
Destroy him.
How?
The woman is interfering.
I can't be any more specific.
Go to the basement,
your weapon is there...
What was that?
The bathroom!
You can watch me strangle her!
Hey, Mika.
Are you all right?
Wake up, Mika. Mika!
It's me. Everything's OK.
Get a hold of yourself.
Everything's all right now.
I took care of him.
Naoto!
It's no use, it won't open.
But why?
We chopped the psychic into pieces.
Did you think you could leave?
I told you I wouldn't let you
out of here.
I won't let that ugly bitch
have you.
What are we going to do?
Let's burn him.
Mika, in a minute I want you to close the
kitchen door and make a dash for the front door.
If what my dad said is correct, the door
should open once I completely incinerate it.
Where are you taking me?
This is the end.
Just what are you up to?
- Did you draw this?
- Yes.
It's a self-portrait;
do you like it?
We're breaking up.
Actually, I wanted your lighter.
- I don't have one, don't you?
- I don't smoke.
I've been nagging at you to quit
and you smoke like a chimney.
And I finally quit.
Oh, that's good.
In that case,
I'll have to chop you into hamburger.
How could you be so cruel?
I've got it! The basement.
Wow, is it real?
Fuckin-A.
I knew my dad was a gun-nut,
but I didn't know he had
anything this badass.
Groovy
Right, I'm blowing you apart!
- Wait.
- Why?
There are body parts missing.
Behind you!
It's still here, be careful.
It's payback time!
Mika, wake up.
Are you all right? Mika?
Don't worry, I'll save you.
What's going on here?
Dammit!
What's happening?
This isn't what you told me.
I chopped him to pieces!
Son of a bitch!
What should I do?
What's that?
Shit!
You're pathetic. You can't even
protect your own girlfriend.
You ain't got the balls!
Go to the basement, Naoto.
You'll find the weapon you need there.
- The weapon...
- My weapon!
My weapon isn't the shotgun.
My weapon is... my muscles!
I'm jacked!
You're not human!
Bring it on!
- You belong to me!
- You gotta be kidding me!
"Sayonara, baby."
Don't take it personally,
but you're not my type.
You bitch!
Glad that worked.
Give me your body!
Not another step.
I'll see you in hell... baby.
Let's go.
