A careless experience















Today, I woke up at afternoon, because I overslept. But actually there is also nothing important for me to do either, so I am able to wake up late.



After I woke up and had breakfast, I have to buy lunch myself, so I went out to buy lunch. Just as I am about to go out, my brother is going out with his friends too, so we go out together.



I go to buy lunch nearby, and when I go back home, then I realised one thing. When I go out, I am using my brother's keys, and I do not have my own keys at all. My house also do not have anyone at home.



I keep waiting outside the door for my mother to return. As I am waiting, I suddenly recalled my mother said that I have a auntie who have our house keys too, so I have to go to my auntie's house to get the keys for my house, so I am able to go inside the house.



It is quite a long way, but I have no choice. It takes me 30 minutes to reach there. After I reached, I thought she i not at home. I keep calling, and finally she came out.



She is going to prepare for work at that time. My auntie lives alone. She give me the keys to my home, and she also give me some drinks.


She wanted me to stay at her house a little longer to rest. She told me that she wants to wash her clothes. She told me that I could rest at her house until she is about to go out to work.


So I waited for her. She give me a lot of soft drinks and she wanted me to bring it home. She also give me some money and want me to take transport home.


At 2.30pm, we go out together to the bus stop. We take the same bus, except different destination. My bus is 2 stops, and her bus is 3 stops.

It is very unfortunate for not bringing out the keys.

At night, I watched a show called forbidden siren. I did not watch the first half part, but I only watch the last half part. The main character girl is very pretty.

Because I did not watch the first half part, therefore it is very confusing when I watch it. It is about this girl who can hear a siren where no one else heard it. The legend says that when the third siren sounds, no one step out of their house. When the forth siren sounds, everybody shall die.

Every single villagers thinks that she is having a mental problem, as no one hears the siren at all.

There is once a incident in 1978 on the same island. It is said that the whole villagers died. The only survivor killed himself. Before the last survivor dies, he make the statement that he hears the siren. He said when the third siren sounds, no one step out of their house. When the forth siren sounds, everybody shall die.

As the siren sounds, there are a lot of ghosts beginning to wander about too. The main character escaped into a house and is being encountered by a man, who said that the only way to stop ghosts from wandering about is to stop the siren.

Then she came by to another house, and she realised that her father lived in the house. She decided to explore the house, and then she suddenly found some photos which is being pasted on a board, which shocks her.

She saw every single villagers' photos. All the photos are being taken in 1978. But all the faces in the photo are all the people who lives in the village currently. In the article, it is said that every single villagers are already dead. All those photos are actually every single people in the village who she meets currently, and are still living.

She feel very frighten after that, and she thinks that every single villagers who are currently living in this village are all already dead, and she is living in the village of the deads.

It is then she decided to get out of the village. She and her brother keep running, and keep hiding from those ghost villagers. Until she came to the siren tower, and she decided to destroy the speaker of the siren.

She climbed up of the tower, and she is shock at a scene. She saw very far away, the sea turns red. She breaks the speaker, but the siren still sounds. Then a man climb up and he said that only she herself can hear the siren, and throughout the whole story, she is always with her brother, and he also told her that her brother is actually dead 6 months ago. Seeing that she is unable to stop the siren, and also depressed that her brother is actually dead, she jumps down of the tower.

She is not dead after she fell down of great height. Suddenly she hears the forth siren. She ended up killing the villagers, and history repeats itself.


(wikipedia)
The story follows a young lady named Yuki, and her father, who is a writer, as they move to Yamajima Island with her younger brother Hideo. The island has a stranger history (like the fact that it was an American burial ground before the war), and a large metal tower can be seen standing on its highest peak.

On arrival, she finds the residents of the quiet rural setting to be slightly bizarre. She is even more perplexed when a neighbour offers her advice about the rules of the island. One warning that all the locals rigidly obey is: NEVER go outside when the air-raid sirens are sounding!

The villagers seem to be hiding something, and Yuki begins to suspect it. One day, Hideo runs away from her, and she chases after him. She stumbles upon Hideo with a mysterious girl wrapped in red shrouds that talks to him and tells him strange stories. Unfortunately, this girl disappears whenever Yuki tries to speak with her.

After some more strange encounters and intensive research, Yuki discovers a piece of folklore from long ago, stating that victims of a terrible disease were once isolated on Yamajima. The story goes that the flesh of a mermaid could bring ever-lasting life, a cure to the disease. They reportedly captured a mermaid and ate it. Before the mermaid died, it let out a terrible scream (the Siren), and cursed the island.

Yuki's father unfortunately turns into a hideous monster called a "Shibito", So Yuki and Hideo try their best to get off the island. But there is no way to escape. Their only choice is to climb the forbidden metal tower at the center of the island. Once there, the plot takes a full twist and we discover that the siren has been in Yuki's head the whole time. The Shibito are really just the ordinary islanders and Hideo has been dead for many years.

When she finally realizes this, she jumps off the tower and tries to commit suicide. Somehow she survives and becomes hospitalized. Outside her room, we hear the doctor speaking with her father. He explains to him that she has imagined the whole experience, such as the previous man did. Yuki awakens to the sound of the fourth siren and she kills her doctor. As the movie ends, the skies turn black and seas become blood red once again.

Many things are left unclear throughout the film due to the complex nature of the plot, the fact that what Yuki is seeing may or may not be real. It may be that Yuki's already unstable mind is merely influenced by the fairy tales and the diary that she comes across. Also, the role of the hidden room in Yuki's home is also left undecided, as it is unknown whether any of the images inside (those dating the islanders back to 1976) are actually factual. Likewise, the role of the woman in red is not made explicit but it is assumed that she is the spirit of the mermaid that died long ago due to her likeness to the girl in the painting. It is suggested by the doctor in the final scene that the siren is only heard by those "conditioned" to hear it and that there may indeed be some supernatural force behind the events.

One explanation of the whole plot is that the inhabitants or the villagers of the island did capture a mermaid and ate it in search of immortality. They succeeded in achieving immortality which explains the photos in the hidden room. The woman in red is likely to be the mermaid seeking revenge on the inhabitants through her curse. The curse is the result of the only person hearing the sirens and will end up killing the inhabitants who had achieved immortality. The cycle is presumed to be continued until everyone shown in the hidden room is killed.
