This is a nice little Japanese horror flick, and I really liked it. A widower is whining to a friend in the movie or TV business that he feels he needs to get married again, but finding the right girl is so HARD. He wants a beautiful girl, who works and can cook, and has some "training", like a dancer or singer, because those women are generally happier. The word "obedient" is used at least once to describe an optimal female. That's already pretty offensive, but then the friend offers to use an upcoming audition for a movie / show that will likely never be made to find this guy a bride. What a couple of sweethearts.
Well, the guy finds his dream-girl (a little older than his son), and he decides to propose. It turns out he has really bad taste in women.
The first part of the film is way too sweet for me, but the build up was really great. And the Japanese like to confuse you with what is real and what is not. Plus they're so damn polite, even when cutting off your foot.
