The premise

Ayaka Ichijo is a graduate student with an IQ of 200 who tries to investigate the strange deaths happening nationwide after people supposedly watched a cursed video and her younger sister also did the same out of curiosity.

Horror Vault's take

When a notorious cursed video begins claiming victims across Japan at an alarming rate, genius graduate student Ayaka Ichijo turns her extraordinary intellect toward cracking the supernatural mystery — before it consumes someone she loves. Equal parts horror and dark comedy, Sadako DX reimagines the Ring franchise's iconic threat for the social media age, where a deadly curse can spread faster than any viral trend. With her sister's life on the line, Ayaka races against a deadline no amount of brainpower may be able to outsmart.
