Apartment 1303 DVD
Apartment 1303 is a 2007 J-horror movie directed by Ataru Oikawa and starring Naoko Otani and Eriko Hatsune. When happy-go-lucky Sayaka jumps from the thirteenth floor balcony of her new apartment after only one day , her elder sister Mariko refuses to believe it was suicide despite the conclusions of the police report.
The fact that she and her mother soon begin seeing dreadful apparitions of Sayaka doesn’t help and, with the help of a creepy little girl in the apartment next door and a local detective familiar with the incident, Mariko learns of the dark history of Apartment 1303.
Years prior a rather shocking story emerged when a quiet young woman leapt to her death from the balcony of the apartment. When the police searched the home during their investigation, they found the mummified corpse of the woman’s mother whom she had apparently murdered and kept in a closet in the back room. Since that initial event, no less than eight young woman had similarly jumped from the same balcony soon after moving in. Though this pattern is obviously more than mere coincidence, the police can only deem them suicides since there is no evidence of an accident or foul play.
It is only when Mariko spends the night in the apartment herself that she learns first hand what lies behind the suicide of her sister and the many others.
