This is a very good film about a serial killer in Tokyo who is committing his crimes by injecting young women with poison from a hypodermic syringe. Because the locations he chooses for his crimes in this huge metropolitan area are so densely packed with people it's extremely hard for the police to identify who this person actually is. And barring his identity and motives the body count rises. Anyway, one of the things that I believe makes this movie so interesting is the exotic location and the culture. But even so there are a lot of nuances involved as well. I especially liked "Dr. Setsumo Suma" (Kaho Minami) as the specialist called in to help investigate the murders. Definitely a beauty. At any rate, because this film is so complicated I won't bother getting into any of the specifics but I will say that if you like a good crime-drama and don't mind English subtitles then this might be a movie you will really enjoy. Above average.
