Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews If looking for a ghost story that's not perfect, artistically shot, prone to violence and entertaining, this one is it. Rated: B Dec 10, 2019 Full Review Steve Biodrowski Cinefantastique This early example of a Japanese kaidan (ghost story) with a contemporary setting begins strong but gradually devolves into stupidity, as the scenario figuratively rips itself to shreds with a series of increasingly ridiculous plot twists. Rated: 2/5 Jun 30, 2014 Full Review Read all reviews
