“Wow” is all I have to say! I am a huge fan of the bizarre, and thus I adored this movie. I think it takes a certain sense of humor to appreciate, but if you’ve got that sense of humor you’ll love it. It is truly demented in the most endearing way possible.

This is a cool little old school sci-fi/horror movie from Japan. It’s really not as cheesy as one would expect- the characters are well developed, the acting is relatively good, and the monster scenes are super atmospheric, crazy, and cool. The first half of the movie is a bit slow, but it’s a nessecary set up. As I stated earlier I love the characterization in this movie- you get to see people who are used to being pampered really work to survive. If “mushroom monsters” sounds intriguing to you- check it out!

Just watched this movie for the first time the other day. While it was gory, I don’t think it’s anywhere near as bad as some people make it out to be in that area. I thought the story could have used a bit of tightening, and that the movie ran a bit too long. That said, I would aboslutely reccomend this movie for people looking for something off the beaten path. Kakihara, the blonde character on the DVD cover, is sick, twisted, and totally original- much like this movie itself! Also, I feel I should mention the humor in this movie- which is dark and unconventional but way more prevelant than most people mention.
