Because of her last name "Kumada" (bear + rice paddy) and her appearance, Misa's high school classmates call her "Pooh" disparagingly. She obviously has no friends and can only let down her guard around her pet parrot and the goldfish in the science room at school. But then she finds herself quickly becoming best friends with Izumi, a cute and popular classmate. Although somewhat puzzled by Izumi's interest in her, Misa is excited about having a friend for the first time ever. But Izumi's initial angelic demeanor gradually transforms into a demonic one.
For some reason I did not expect this film to be this good. Shady is an outstanding drama that deals with bullying between young girls, and has some slight horror aspects to it. As it goes on, the innocent appearance of a blooming friendship becomes deliciously twisted and wrong. The music is also surprisingly calm and beautiful considering the dark and sinister plot. Do yourself a huge favor and watch this film right now.
