Pretty spooky, not what I was expecting

Pretty funny, pretty scary. The comedy is more focused on the first few episodes and tapers off towards the end, but it still got some laughs out of me. Good directing and acting. A little wild how good this is when you take a look at the creators other work. It’s a double edged sword that this is on apple tv, because it means it’s very good, but only 2 people have a subscription and the next season is three years away.

It was really good. Kiyoshi Kurosawa has a very distinct directing style that really works for the movie. I really like the shots through windows or across rooms, that are sort of like a voyeuristic viewpoint, maybe giving the impression of ghosts watching people live their lives. More of a slow-burn contemplative horror than something really in your face. I don’t think this is quite as good as Cure for me, but it’s definitely worth a watch.

It was fun, probably on par with the first.
