Cure (DVD) (English Subtitled) (Japan Version) DVD Region 2

Renowned for his horror films, Japanese writer-director Kurosawa Kiyoshi made his international breakthrough in 1997 with Cure. Dark and disturbing, this psychological thriller explores a pure and penetrating horror that comes not from long-haired spectres, but from the ghosts of the mind, the shadows that lurk within. In subverting the audience's understanding of human nature and the power of the mind, Kurosawa brings forth a visceral terror greater than any supernatural scares. Cure is a landmark work in Kurosawa's filmography, with Yakusho Koji (Shall We Dance?) and Hagiwara Masato (Café Lumiere) delivering award-winning performances.

Detective Takabe (Yakusho Koji) has a very strange case in his hands. There have been a series of murders, in which all the victims are killed by knife and left with an X-shaped wound carved across the throat and chest. All of these murders, however, have been committed by different people who are apprehended shortly afterwards near or at the crime scene. The perpetrators appear to have no motives for murder, and no connections to each other. With the help of psychologist Sakuma (Ujiki Tsuyoshi, Full Metal Gokudo), Takebe traces the case to a young mysterious man (Hagiwara Masato) with no memories of his past and strong hypnotism abilities. Pulled into a dangerous mind game, Takebe finds that the man is starting to have an unsettling effect on him as well.
