Scarecrow - 2001 - 5/10
AKA - Kakashi // 案山子

Kaoru, searching for her missing brother, enters a forsaken village.
By and large, everyone is taciturn, occupied with an upcoming scarecrow festival.
As for Kaoru, she has the common sense of a radish.
Her car stalls in the tunnel outside the village. She is repeatedly warned and urged to get out.
She is annoyingly inquisitive, yet incapable of putting clues together.
The direction of this runs from ponderous to lame. The female lead CANNOT act.
Advice, should you ever find yourself in a nest of menacing scarecrows: box of matches or firehose.
