Move over Glen Close, you have finally met your match! Eihi Shiina stars as Asami, a seemingly quiet and shy woman who is just looking for love. Unfortunately for our hero Aoyama, played by Ryo Ishibashi, her definition of everlasting love is a little different from the norm. The movie does start off as a rather normal one, with Ishibashi's character looking for his true love through an audition for a movie. After an hour or so of good character development (we find that Aoyama is a good parent and truly wants a loving relationship), the story begins to heat up. I won't get into details, but I will mention that the last seen is truly as horrifying as everyone has indicated in the postings here. For me, it was not the act in itself that freaked me out as much as the attitude of Asami during all this time. Check out her face when she has her wire in hand going to work. Does she look like she's having a good time, or what? Truly chilling.... It couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.
Rating: 8/10 very good Japanese movie if you can stomach it.
