How to Survive: Dark Water (2002)

It's episode 195...and I'll never leave you alone again. Dark Water (2002) tells the story of Yoshimi, a lady going through a messy divorce and custody battle for her daughter Ikuko. Their new apartment is far from ideal: there's a leaking ceiling, a surly building attendant, and there may or may not be the vengeful spirit of a dead child to deal with. J-Horror Season continues and concludes with this unsung star of the horror genre. We talk about the benefits of living like a prepper; we compare other 'sad horror' movies; and discuss why wraith-like girls drenched in water keep cropping up in movies. All of which leads to one important question: How would you survive? Whatever happens, one thing's for sure: There's a wet spot on my ceiling, and water dripping down from it. Next week, it's Comedy Horror season with Shaun of the Dead (2004) Get in touch! [email protected] Follow us on Twitter! @HowToSurvivePod
