Synopsis

This spin-off from a best-selling Manga series is one of the biggest popular hits to emerge from Japan since the original RING. A must for fantasy fans and Goth-inclined teens, this chiller-thriller breathlessly follows the mayhem that ensues when law student Light (Tatsuya Fujiwara) is given a special book that can cause a person's death just by writing their name in it.

Urged on by the Angel of Death (a memorable CGI creation), Light becomes a serial-killing vigilante and attracts the attention of a mysterious detective mastermind known only as L (Ken'ichi Matsuyama).

DEATH NOTE is followed by the equally successful sequel DEATH NOTE: THE LAST NAME, which will also open at the ICA.
