Four high school students died of heart attack mysteriously. A reporter from Central Newspaper, Asakawa, was determined to find out the truth. He learned that all 4 students watched a video tape 2 weeks before they died, so he obtained the tape and watched it, trying to solve the mystery. However, he did not see anything unusal in the tape, which is a music video of a popular singer. Nevertheless, another man who also watched the tape 2 weeks ago died of heart attack. Asakawa was afraid that he would die after 2 weeks, so he seeked help from Takayama Ryuji, who specialized in paranormal phenomenon and seemed to have a mysterious past. After computerized digital analysis, they found out that the video was cursed and whoever saw it only had 13 days left to live...

I really enjoyed the story and casting of this drama. Creepy and fun though not what I would consider scary it did have it's moments though. I missed Nanako Matsushima who is my favorite actress but all the cast worked well in this including Kuroki-san.

Watch this with your gf!

I continually lost interest in this one. It was like a never ending slower version of the movie (without Matsushima btw..sigh). There was alot of interesting points in this drama though which kept it alive. But when it all boils down to it, the movie does a good job at getting all that accomplished, and more.
Scare Factor Movie = 10/10
Scare Factor Drama= 2/10 (+1 for freakiness only)
