Title: First-rate treatment of a rather second rate movie...
Product review: I don`t enjoy disagreeing with the other reviewer of this film- he obviously knows what he`s talking about and is genre-knowledgable, but after seeing the supurb "JIGOKU" and "Yotsuya Ghost Story",I purchased this flick as soon as it was released and couldn`t have been more disappointed -it`s slow moving, none of its characters are fleshed out in any way, the horror element is non-existent and,truth be told, there is no real snake woman in sight- in stark contrast to what the dvd cover would have you believe. Your money and your time would be better spent on his earlier works, or on other Asian Cult Cinema releases like "Madame O", "Blind Woman`s Curse" or Teruo Ishii`s "Horror Of Malformed Men" - all of which are a lot more fun and enjoyable to watch, IMHO.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
