The Japanese film started with a creepy tone it just couldn't sustain, ultimately getting dull and a little confusing, resorting to the staple of Japanese horror: the contortionist ghost. It would take a lot of work to improve on it, i.e. make it a watchable movie. But, I don't think a good movie could ever be made out of this premise.

I disagree -- Kairo is one of the best movies of this Century so far. It's the horror movie Stanley Kubrick should've made: brooding existential terror about the nature of human relationships and the possibility that death is worse than we can imagine.
