Viewing Notes

I had high hopes for VERSUS. Directed by Ryûhei Kitamura (Midnight Meat Train, Azumi), I had high hopes. Sure, this was an earlier film by Kitamura, but I was willing to forgive a lot. After all the praise I’ve heard, I wasn’t completely sold on VERSUS. My overall reaction was “meh.”

Oh well, you can’t love all cult flicks.
