Viewing Notes

I’d never heard of this film before. It popped up on Peacock and looked interesting, so I gave it a chance.  It was pretty damn good.  It starts out a little slow, but gets more and more absorbing and suspenseful as the mystery unfolds.

big fan of this movie. was fortunate to see the US premiere with the director at Fantastic Fest. The lead Ayako Fujitani is Steven Seagal’s daughter. :)

Seagal’s daughter?  No kidding!

Yeah, I knew nothing about this film, assuming it was one of those average straight-to-video things.  But I was totally surprised and impressed.
