A work directed by Hideshi Hino, a horror manga artist who expresses a world of mystery and lyricism with a unique touch. On her way home, Reiko meets a man holding a rose with a Hannya mask. Terrified, Reiko hurries home, but from that day on, mysterious things begin to happen around her. Reiko suffers between reality and fantasy, but the man with the rose turns out to be her former lover whom she once loved...




















*The title of the review says it all. This fact should be clearly recorded in the history of Japanese independent music.
*The eroticism is on the level of an erotic fairy tale?Although it falls into the psychological horror genre, it is on the level of a school performance. However, I am drawn to the rape scenes because of the heroine's high acting skills, the beauty of her singing voice, and the beauty of her nude body. The beauty of the contrast between the bed strewn with roses and the nude body is romantic?The flashback scene where memories that had been lost are revived is sensual and romantic, and the love affair scene strewn with red roses was impressive. The reason why it was a bad movie was that they didn't use good-looking men like love men or erotic men, and the Hannya and Tengu masks were too lame.Would it be 5 stars if they used good-looking men and masks like Phantom of the Opera or Persona 5?
Bought this because it was labeled as horror. Forget the sex scenes, I was actually expecting a decent plot. It felt like a movie from the early Showa era. Both the sex and the horror were terrible.
