User Reviews
GoreHound – 8/10
“Miike does it again! This one's got that unsettling vibe that gets under your skin. The teacher's method is brutal and the tension never lets up. It's not for the faint of heart, but if you like dark, twisted thrillers, this is a must-watch.”
HorrorNerd88 – 6/10
“It had some truly creepy moments and the acting was solid, but it felt a bit too messy. The story is all over the place and there's one too many shock value scenes that seemed pointless. Not Miike's best, but it'll satisfy fans of his weirdness.”
ScaryFanatic – 7/10
“I appreciated how it tackled bullying from a sick angle. The main character's descent is terrifying, and you never know what he'll do next. Some parts were hard to watch, but that's what made it so effective for me.”
CinephileNightmare – 5/10
“The premise grabbed me, but the execution fell flat. It tries to be edgy but ends up just being mean-spirited without much substance. I wanted to like it more, but it kinda bored me in the middle. Check it out if you're a completionist.”
