Viewing Notes
Film #2 at Stanley Film Fest. Debated whether to see it since I have the DVD. But it proved worthy of a big screen viewing. Not nearly as crazy as touted yet still has plenty of Miike flourishes. Overly long it could use another pass at the editing to tighten it up for a taunt thriller.
