Ahead of its release this October, a poster, trailer and images have been released for writer-director Masaya Kato’s action horror Ouija Japan that follows Karen, an American housewife living in Japan when peer pressure forces her to play Kokkuri-san, which leads the friends being forced to fight each other in a deadly battle royal when they disrespect a local deity; check them out here…
Karen is an American housewife living in Japan who desperately wants to fit in with her Japanese community, until peer pressure forces her to play the Kokkuri-san (the Japanese Ouija) with the other housewives, unwittingly disrespecting a local deity, who sets them up to fight each other in a deadly game of battle royal. A mysterious app gets installed on their phones to aid them in their battle. It offers the women tools to fight each other, which they buy with credits. But they better be careful with their spending.
Ouija Japan is set for release on October 16th.
