As with 'Ju-On' (The Grudge), the premise of J-Horror chiller 'Dark Water' revolves around a haunted house, or an house inhabited by a vengeful, evil spirit. (Insert Japanese term.)
From Midnight Eye review by Nicholas Rucka:
'My apartment is alive and I know it has a lot of stories. But this makes sense seeing as it is an unrefurbished tenement. Hideo Nakata understands the concept of the old building that is alive and chose to set his film Dark Water in this type of location: an old, moldy, concrete apartment building. Nakata realizes that often times in horror, the location is an additional character in the cast - often co-starring.'
