Yasuko, a housewife, lives in an urban high-rise apartment with her husband Satoru and her son Takuto. Annoyed by spam calls and door-to-door salesmen, Yasuko slams the door on a salesman’s hand when he tries to squeeze a flyer through the apartment's chained front door. He leaves, but the next day, her nightmare starts.
- Kevin Ward1. Juli 2025Really well done home invasion, stalker/thriller. Feels like a thinly veiled jab at telemarketers and door-to-door salesman. I simultaneously really liked and hated the ending. On one hand the chase through the apartment with the overhead POV panning from room to room was a really awesome shot. On the other hand, typical frustrating character decisions stretch believability. Like, how is your first action after exiting the bathroom not to call the cops. I ain’t tucking my son gently into bed until I know 1000% where Rapey McRaperson is. Maybe that’s just me though. Solid thriller, even though it’s light on the slashing.
- adam82025. Juni 2025This is an interesting movie for a variety of reasons, with a wild final stretch that, even if a bit laughable in parts, is competently filmed. By today's standards, this may seem a little slow in terms of a look at the "slasher" genre done in Japanese, but it's slow cooker nature does a really effective job building up toward the climax. Set in the middle of bubble-era 80's Japan, we get a real sense of loneliness present in that go-go boom culture: a husband who's not at home, no sign of many neighbors in an otherwise occupied apartment high-rise, a thankless door-to-door sales job, and an apartment that's pristine but somehow devoid of "life". Not present is the typical slasher conservative eye of Reagan-era America judging loose teens and dooming them to a gruesome death; instead, we're treated to a unique look at the genre in the middle of it's golden era from a different perspective.
