"I had to rewatch this movie to catch all of the "problems" that may have resulted in the antagonist of this movie. It is sad and horrific and worth multiple viewings"

"a classic. it really does start off like something i would have zero interest in and then all of a sudden it’s absolutely wild. super gory and i loved that, one of the first japanese horror movies i watched actually "

"The movie that starts off slower, but always leaves a feeling of strangeness in the air. As the story develops, there are many unpredictable and interesting twists and turns. The movie could have a more fluid dynamic, it takes a while to reach its climax, but it's worth seeing through to the end."

"I love how it hot swaps from romcom to horror. "

"OMG!!! THIS WAS AMAZING!!! It’s an awesome romance feel-good movie in the first half, though it’s slightly ominous. But the ending is so horrific and thrilling with amazing twists. But don’t watch if you don’t like body horror😬"

"Slow burn horror, romance of the darkest most doomed kind. A soft pleasant, dreamy start until the deep dive into trauma. "

"Psychological horrow done well. It's subtle at first but very effective. A slow burn leading up to 15 minutes of explicitm, slicing, gore."

"The end scene really pulls this together and makes you squirm."
