Just Wow...
This series starts out like your typical Japanese horror drama/ movie where the settling is mundane and everyday until a slow creeping starts to bubble and things about our ML start to be revealed.Then it takes a hard left into Dexter. Like, just bam murder and guts everywhere. I don't think it's a spoiler to say a Japanese horror film has a lot of blood in it, that's basically their trademark at this point. It has a feeling to it that is both typical of the genre and not. I think the director/ writer took some inspiration from the film "American Psycho" as you really get the sense of dark humor from the ML, except he's much more dangerous than Patrick Bateman ever thought of being.
Without giving anything away, the film shows some pretty dark themes and scores of blood (not surprising of course) it promises a continuation but there doesn't seem to be one as the ML seems to only be beginning his rampage. It's enjoyable but it's not something that I would consider earth shattering as far as story telling goes. Worth the watch, and the sequel if it ever comes to fruition.
