Emilie Black Cinema Crazed The acting is good, the story has twists and turns that keep the attention and make this film worth watching. Rated: 3.5/5 Apr 19, 2020 Full Review Panos Kotzathanasis Asian Movie Pulse A film that looks like an entry in J-horror, but is actually a film noir with some horror elements, benefiting the most from the script and the atmosphere. Oct 31, 2018 Full Review Harris Dang easternKicks.com The Inerasable is a great film that is buoyed by two good leading performances and Yoshihiro Nakamura's assured hand to subvert J-Horror tropes and clichés and create a part meta-horror experience/part crime procedural that is refreshingly smart. Rated: 4/5 Oct 31, 2018 Full Review James Marsh South China Morning Post Yoshihiro Nakamura's first foray into horror in more than a decade proves a cracking return to form, both for the director and the J-horror genre. Rated: 3.5/5 Oct 22, 2016 Full Review Jonathan Hatfull SciFiNow The Inerasable is clever, gripping and very scary, a ghost story that will engage genre fans intellectually while sending a shiver down their spine. Seek it out. Rated: 5/5 Jul 29, 2016 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member A mystery writer helps a student investigate hauntings in her apartment. The story follows their investigation as they dig into the building's dark history. Based on a novel by Fuyumi Ono (Ghost Hunt, Shiki, Twelve Kingdoms) and loaded with stars (including the late Yuko Takeuchi), "The Inerasable" (Original: Zan'e) is a pretty high profile Japanese horror work. It's also the ultimate slow-burn, so anyone who's into jump scares and frenetic action might want to stay away. That said, there is a lot to be enjoyed here, from the acting to the mystery that's slowly unraveled. Personally I love subtle horror like this one that will stay with you long after the ending credits roll. Check out creepysoba.com for more recent Asian horror! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Atmospheric and has it's share of creepy moments, but long winded, confusing and doesn't really go anywhere. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member The movie started with creepy beginning but then progressively go down, and the puzzle-like story fragments just keep repeating itself with similar patterns. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Read all reviews
