Ouija Japan (2021) is a female-led action/horror film combining two popular horror elements: the Ouija and the Japanese Battle Royal. Discover the Japanese Ouija, how it differs, what it does, how it works, and experience a Japanese twist on the genre.
The movie centers on Karen, 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.
This is the debut feature film of writer and director Masaya Kato. The movie is starring Ariel Sekiya, Miharu Chiba, Eigi Kodaka, and Shizuka Ayagaki.
Ouija Japan (2021) will be available on October 19, 2021, on Amazon Prime Video and Blu-ray from Leomark Studios and TokyoSHOCK Japan. Here you can watch its official trailer.
