Cast

Reception

Eric Kohn of IndieWire gave the film a B- grade, saying: "While the two main leads share enough chemistry to inject their drama with purpose, it's hardly enough to justify the two hour-plus journey."[8] Maggie Lee of Variety had a mixed reaction, describing the films as "Kiyoshi Kurosawa at his least disturbing or mesmerizing", and said: "Although the aesthetics retain the Nipponese horror maestro's trademark haunting quality, the yarn's U-turn from psycho-horror to hokey childlike fable is unexpected and disappointing".[9] Boyd Van Hoeij of The Hollywood Reporter praised the production design by Takeshi Shimizu.[10]
