A cursed ghost, a vengeful woman and a love story that turns deadly and twisted.
After her beloved is killed by the Mag Mag ghost, Sanae vows revenge. As she searches for the perpetrator, her journey turns into a combination horror, dark comedy and romance. Twists and bizarre encounters blur the line between obsession, grief and survival, creating a thrilling, unpredictable experience in classic J-horror style.
K2 Pictures’ first feature, directed by the Japanese comedian-turned-filmmaker Yuriyan Retriever, reinvents J-horror with humour, pathos and tons of style. Drawing from her own romantic experiences, Retriever blends terrifying supernatural elements with twisted comedy, crafting a story that shocks and moves at the same time. Hideki Shima’s beautiful cinematography, yonkey’s eerie score and the imaginative production design by Makiko Endo elevate the film’s surreal universe. With Sara Minami, Maeda Oshiro, and Aoi Yamada delivering standout performances, Mag Mag is a bold statement from a new production company aiming to reshape Japanese cinema by mixing horror, romance and absurdity into a fresh, unforgettable cocktail.
