Lionsgate Home Entertainment has announced that it will release the Japanese chiller Kaidan on U.S. DVD June 30. It’s the latest venture into ghostly territory by director Hideo Nakata, who helmed Ringu, Ringu 2 and the American The Ring Two.

Originally announced as part of producer Taka Ichise’s J-horror Theater series, Kaidan was not officially released under that banner when it opened in Japan in August 2007. Based on a tale from the 19th century, it tells the story of a young man who accidentally injures his teacher wife, leading to her death. He then takes up with one of her students, little knowing that as an infant, he was placed under a curse, and the ghost of his dead spouse begins haunting him. The movie will be presented in 16x9-enhanced widescreen with Dolby Digital 5.1 audio (both subtitled Japanese and English) and no special features currently announced. Retail »
