Title: The Hypnotist ,Serpent rises
Review: A frightfully fun thriller from director Masayuki Ochiai (Parasite Eve), Hypnosis ultimately succeeds thanks to its unusual ability to successfully pile on scare after scare. Viewers jaded in the aftermath of Ringu (1996) may argue that long-haired girls in flowing white gowns just aren't that scary anymore, and despite yet another appearance of such a menace, Ochiai has seemingly compensated by timing out his various other horrors at a consistent and truly satisfying pace. While not entirely original in concept, Hypnosis certainly stands out among its contemporaries when it comes to tone. Successfully balancing his horrors with an offbeat air of quirkiness, there are few films that can match the oddball air of menace that Hypnosis achieves effect bieng a good film,highly reccomend it.
