Over two decades after terrifying the world with the ghosts of Toshio and Kayako with Ju-On: The Grudge, legendary filmmaker Takashi Shimizu returns to his J-Horror roots with the thrilling diptych Sana and Sana: Let Me Hear.Starring J-Pop supergroup ‘Generations from Exile Tribe’ playing fictionalised versions of themselves, Sana sees the band members discover a mysterious cassette tape containing only a simple melody. But this earworm comes with sinister consequences, as anyone who hears the tune becomes compelled to constantly hum it and finds themselves plagued with horrifying ghostly visions. The band, their manager and a world-weary detective must team up to uncover the mystery behind the tape and save themselves from falling under its malignant spell. In Sana: Let Me Hear, a group of high school students are taking extra classes during the summer holidays when one of them suddenly jumps off the school roof in a grim reminder of a similar incident that happened at the same school 30 years prior. Substitute teacher Honoka discovers that both events revolve around an elusive girl named Sana, and the chilling secret behind the cassette tape she recorded.Takashi Shimizu delivers a one-two punch of magnificent J-Horror mayhem that combines his affinity for elliptical storytelling with smart metanarrative scriptwriting that updates the genre’s tropes for a whole new generation of horror fans.LIMITED EDITION CONTENTSHigh Definition (1080p) Blu-ray presentationsOriginal Japanese DTS-HD MA 5.1 audio and stereo audio for both filmsOptional English subtitles for both filmsAn interview with director Takashi Shimizu and assistant director and horror consultant Nao KawamatsuJ-Horror: Then and Now, a brand new retrospective on the J-Horror genre by critic and Japanese cinema expert Amber T.Making-of featurette for SanaAlternate ending and previously unreleased scenes for SanaMaking-of featurette including previously unreleased scenes for Sana: Let Me HearOriginal theatrical trailers and teasers for both filmsReversible sleeve featuring newly commissioned artwork for both films by Tom FournierCollectors’ booklet featuring new writing on the films by critic and Asian cinema expert Hayley Scanlon
