Though not particularly different from its western counterparts, the film serves up an atmospheric, if slow and often senseless, package of bloody slice and dice

a monstrously stylised orgy of sex, violence and grotesque family dysfunction, insanely remixing past horror films to a Goblin-esque score, while prefiguring [REC] and the 'torture porn' that would dominate the Noughties.

The first hour has a grim and gritty anti-charm that's quite devilishly entertaining. And then the wheels kinda come off.

...it's a good entry in the horror genre that does deserve a viewing by those who haven't seen it already.

Sep 13, 2014A Japanese giallo about a group of TV crew investigating an abandoned factory after receiving a snuff film, mysterious stranger kills them off one by one. I appreciated the style and twists Ishii has used, but the acting was terrible, it was as if all the "professional" film crew were high schoolers. The grainy, sepia setting was effectively used, the special effects were superb. I could see a lot of reference to Argento's works (electronic music during chasing scenes, insects, brief appearances of the killer, etc). This low budget slasher still has plenty of shock values even till this day. Despite starting off quite well, it slowly descended into boredom with no one to kill. It may be a good practice to just watch the first forty minutes and turn it off.Sylvester K Super Reviewer

Nov 27, 2009I've wanted to see this for a long time and I got what I wanted: A fucking fantastic Japanese horror flick that's different from other horror movies i've seen. It's pretty graphic, it's got a unique and cool style to it, and it just has a great set up in the story. It's really good and it probably is like they say: "The best Japanese Horror Flick of All Time!". I'd say the only one that rivals it so far for me is Takashi Miike's "Audition", but I still think it's fair to say that weither or not it ties with "Audition" or beats it, it's still my favorite Japanese horror flick to date and I watch a lot of Japanese flicks. SEE THIS!ZACHO D Super Reviewer

Sep 11, 2008I've had quite the time with this one. When I first saw this I hated it ("This is nothing like Evil Dead!") but I keep returning to it like an abused spouse. Now, I quite like it. A lot actually. It's a bizarre film that rarely makes logical sense, but if you let yourself get into it, it can be a hell of a lot of fun. Great visuals and gore make it easy to see why genre fans call this the "Japanese Argento film". Now if only I could get into Argento....Christopher B Super Reviewer
