The Line

The Line follows Fuyuko, a magazine reporter who uncovers a chilling phenomenon known as the "Curse Dial." This malevolent device allows users to enter their name and phone number, and upon receiving a response, they must name a person they wish to kill within ten seconds for the curse to take effect.

The film delves into the psychological horror genre, focusing on the moral implications of wielding such power. With a cast that includes Kyosuke Yabe, Nuts Tanahashi, and Tomorowo Taguchi, The Line presents a disturbing narrative that challenges viewers' perceptions of life and death. The horror elements are woven throughout the plot, making it a notable entry in late '90s Japanese horror.
