It is a film based on a Japanese urban legend about a baby that was stuffed into a coin locker in Shibuya left to die and comes back as a ghost that wants revenge. Now this seems to me as awesome premise for a movie but it fails miserably in its execution. It is about four college student that gain the ire of the ghost by using the locker that it was stuffed into I just don't see connection that the ghost wants to kill these kids by using a locker. It seems to me if I was the ghost I would go after my uncaring parents or the people that could hear my crying. I don't know about you but if I am going to go for revenge I would go for the people that screwed my infantile life up. It some how follow these college students around killing them off one at a time much like what happens in the grudge but you don't even get to see the ghost through the majority of the movie. However this movie does have some good points and some unintentionally funny spots too I really cant talk about these with out having to give away a couple of important plot developments. Over all I would say this movie is mediocre at best. I would give it a 6 out of a possible 10.
