1 star for this extremely disappointing Japanese horror.
The Complex is directed by renowned director Hideo Nakata (Ring, Dark Water) and as such I was expecting great things. However, this is his first film for almost a decade and shows no sign of his former brilliance.
The film is set in an old and dilapidated Japanese apartment complex, into which Asuka (Atsuko Maeda - Seventh Code) moves with her family.
As her friends at nursing college take great delight in telling her, the complex has a reputation for being haunted and she soon begins to see the evidence of this, hearing strange scratching noises behind her bedroom wall and an early morning alarm that won't stop.
Asuka finally plucks up the courage to enter the apartment next door, where she finds the dead body of her neighbour, who has been scratching at the wall.
