Hideo Nakata is back! Sure, he never really went away, but the Ringu director’s career has taken slight a detour the past few years. Nakata made the jump to Hollywood by directing sequel to The Ring, which was not nearly as well received as the original American remake. In 2008, Nakata directed a spin-off of the live-action Death Note series titled Death Note L: Change the World.

2010 gave us Chatroom, a little seen cyber-thriller out of the UK starring Kick-Ass‘ Aaron Johnson. Now with the imminent arrival of 2013’s The Complex, it looks like Hideo Nakata is getting back to what he does best: filming movies in Japanese that also speak the universal language of fear.

You won’t want to miss the teaser trailer for The Complex, which boasts high production values and a stylish look.

Perhaps taking a page from Nakata’s own Dark Water, the film follows a young girl who moves into a large apartment complex and soon becomes witness to a series of horrifying events. The Complex hits Japanese theaters in May of 2013. Thanks to Far East Films for the scoop.
