“A truly wild spook show of a movie that almost feels proto-De Palma at times.”
— Mondo Digital
Unlike the previous films in this series, which operate in a high-cultural plane, this one is based on a popular Young Adult manga series by Kazuo Umezu (The Drifting Classroom). A teenager who has grown up in a boarding school returns to her bizarre family home, with a father who is absorbed in his bizarre experiments and a (ghost?) sister. Dreamlike, gothic, and a little silly — just like you.
