After the original Paranormal Activity shocked, scared and downright terrified people the world over, grossing over $100million in the US and £10 Million in the UK along the way, Japanese Horror aficionado Toshikazu Nagae, with additional input from the original US producers, set out to make an even more shocking sequel.
As is the tradition of US filmmakers re-working Japanese horror classics to bring them to a wider audience, Toshikazu Nagae has done just the opposite; taking the bones of Oren Peli’s US horror spectacle, and molding it into his own Japanese sequel, with two bedrooms - and twice the fear!
The Yamano family lives in a remote area of Tokyo, Japan. With their father away on business, 19-year-old Koichi is left to look after his wheelchair-bound sister Haruka; who has returned to Japan early after surviving a car accident whilst travelling in America.
Soon after Haruka’s return from that states, strange and unexplainable things start to happen in the Yamano home.
As the incidents continue to grow increasingly stranger and more severe, Koichi persuades his sister to set up a video camera to try and capture them on film. What Koichi discovers is beyond anything he could have ever imagined and, as the situations intensify, a terrible fact is revealed.
