Kichiku dai enkai (1997)
go rent something else if you are looking for splatter
This was far and away one of the worst movies I've ever seen. it wasn't bad in a good way, it was bad in a very bad way. nonexistent plot, BORING up until the end. 2 hrs long full of over-stylized nonsense up until a completely disgusting finale. sure, if you like gore it has it, but you have to fast-forward through 1:30 of pointless dialogue and pretentious lens filters to get there. for example, WHY do we have to watch some guy get dressed for 3 minutes? WHY do we have to watch the group drive SLOWLY up a mountain with swirling camera views of the very pretty treetops? WHY are there like three scenes of the group eating noodles in silence? The mood was set from the very beginning--the filmmaker sadly decided to drive this mood home continuously with a parade of boring shots. this is what happens when filmmakers unsuccessfully try to fuse high art and splatter--an experiment tried often but rarely executed successfully. If you're thinking of renting this movie, just read the back of the box, save yr $5 and pretend you did.
