Premonition - 2004 - 6/10
AKA - Yogan // 予言
Select individuals, like our male protagonist, catch the odd newspaper clipping.
Or it flat lands on their desk or windowpane.
Foretelling upcoming death. Solo or multiple. Of course, he is skeptical.
First casualty, his own young daughter.
Slow boil, J-Horror, similar in tone and style with other of this era, eg: Ringu, Pulse.
Guilt and grief permeate the first two-thirds.
Then, timeslips and alternate possibilities shift at an increasingly giddy pace.
Glad I hung with this, although the slow build might put some off.
