Japan Horror

 

 (imdb)

CURE-1997-Eerie, if overlong, J-horror about a series of gruesome murders all committed by seemingly random people who then mutilate the bodies with an X. While the murderers fully admit they did the killings, they have no reason why. Investigations by police detective Takabe (Anna Nakagawa) and psychiatrist Sakuma (Tsuyoshi Ujiki) lead to weird guy named Mamiya (Masako Hagiwara). 

Intense psychological horror with a semi-ambiguous ending written and directed by Kiyoshi Kurosawa (BRIGHT FUTURE (2002)).

Thanks for reading!

AKARUI MIRAI-(BRIGHT FUTURE)-2003-I just watched this strange (and kind of disturbing) Japanese film from director Kiyoshi Kurosawa.

Two friends work at a boring laundry job. One dreams of the bright future of the title while the other has his own agenda for dealing with his inner rage including converting his "pet" saltwater jellyfish to fresh water. While some of the scenes may seem pointless and disjointed it makes you think a little more than usual about just what the heck is going on! It's not for all tastes and you may lose interest too soon.

That was a terrible review but I'm tired and have to go to bed...

Good night!
