"Bilocation" is a supernatural phenomenon in which an individual appears in two different places at the same time, which has been reported historically worldwide. What if your alter ego exceeds your experience and ability? And what if he/she tries to prevent you from standing in the way of him/her? Can you accept it, or will you kill the other "you"? Bilocation depicts the nightmare of an alter ego that endangers not only your identity but also your very existence. It is an imaginative psychological thriller unlike anything you've ever seen. —Jiilo_Kim

Atypical horror/thriller

Having seen a few Japanese "horrors", I have come to expect the unexpected. For those of you who have only seen the scary J-Horrors, you may be disappointed. For those like me who adore both those movies - and movies like (the exceptional) Memento Mori that have far more depth and emotional gravitas - then you may just enjoy Bilocation. The horror/action in Bilocation was for me the least interesting, sometimes coming across as a little clumsy, and why I could not give it 9 stars. However, the universe it creates around the bilocation phenomenon, and how the characters decide to fight it/manipulate it, is extremely well thought through and keeps you guessing right to the end. Definitely give it a try if scares is not the only thing you expect from J-Horror - which I have come to not assume as the case. If there is such a genre as Pathos Horror, this would fit perfectly.
