About this event
After her brother is accused of murdering four people, Satomi Kurahashi desperately searches for a way to prove his innocence. She turns to a mysterious psychic for help, but the investigation quickly spirals into a bizarre series of supernatural events involving disturbing visions, strange rituals, and revelations that go far beyond a simple murder case. Hirohisa Sasaki’s film is an outrageous collision of horror, comedy, action, and exploitation, pushing Japanese genre cinema into deliberately chaotic territory. Mixing supernatural mystery, grotesque imagery, and absurd humour, it plays like a fever dream of late-1990s/early-2000s underground horror rather than a conventional thriller.
