From the mind of "Vampire Hunter D" creator Hideyuki Kikuchi comes a new film about a group of children that dissappears, only to return one rainy day 35 years later! A reporter following the story of a child's corps that has mysteriously been rendered free of it's internal organs is drawn to a small town where he learns the story of group of elementary school students who dissappeared 35 years ago. The people tell him to "stay inside when it rains out of season, you'll get drunk in by the rain." Soon he discovers the school's old photo albums and speaks with the residents about the event . . . where it becomes obvious that the town is hiding something. Thirty-five years ago, a group of young school children disappeared in the Japanese woods. In present day Japan, a lazy young reporter is tasked to write a story on a child who is found dead with gory injuries and inexplicable missing organs. Suddenly, the child rises from the dead, and takes the journalist on a journey into the woods to unravel a decades-old mystery of what happened to these missing children. With the help of a beautiful young city office clerk, he soon discovers that the children are undead, and have not aged in the 35 years since their disappearance, haunting their families who are intent on ending this cycle of violence.
