This film is a masterpiece that is without a doubt Kurosawa's crowning achievement, and that is really saying a lot considering all of the excellent films he's made. This is perhaps the deepest horror film I've ever seen, dealing with themes of isolation, loneliness, death, and nihilism. You must see this film. Overall: 10/10

EDIT: Something I forgot to mention earlier... If you have a surround sound system, you will really get a lot out of the sound in this film. There are certain scenes where it will sound like the ghosts are whispering right in your ear. Awesome stuff.
