Reviews from Letterboxd:

  1. Review by Matt Howsam – ★★★☆☆
    “Sushi and sashimi spawning teeth, breeding, and creating zombies from those who consume. Rina Takeda is great either selling its self-belief messaging or battling a tuna man. Amid its mayhem, the midsection drags, but Dead Sushi rallies with an inspired sauna shower via decapitation. Uniquely Japanese yet not from Sushi Typhoon despite Yoshihiro Nishimura effects.”
  2. Review by Chris – ★★★☆☆
    “A film that knows exactly what it is and doesn’t try to be anything else. Ridiculous, over-the-top, and a lot of fun if you’re in the right mood.”
  3. Review by Andrew – ★★★★☆
    “Hilarious and gory in equal measure. The concept is absurd, but the execution is spot on for fans of splatter comedies.”
  4. Review by Sarah – ★★★☆☆
    “Not for the squeamish, but if you enjoy campy horror with a side of sushi, this is worth a watch.”
  5. Review by Tom – ★★★★☆
    “Iguchi delivers another cult classic. The practical effects are delightfully grotesque, and the humor is unapologetically silly.”
