Reviews from Letterboxd:
- Avirup – ★★★★☆
“Starts losing some of the paranoid intensity once the mystery starts unfolding after a really really good first half and the ending isn’t entirely satisfying either but overall still pretty nicely tense and nightmarish.” - Maxwell Bresee – ★★★★☆
“Another long-thought lost film that resurfaced just a few years ago thanks to a TV airing. And now with subtitles! Yuri has been having a rough week – she’s been laid off her job for no real reason, dumped by her boyfriend for no real reason, and told to move out of her apartment by the end of the month. Then her apartment is robbed, her job application is rejected and she’s accused of robbing a man the night she takes a sleazy floozy job. This series of unfortunate events have to be connected, but just who is orchestrating this, and why? The bad stuff that happen to poor Yuri is down right anxiety-inducing, and Wakako Sakai does a great job portraying her.” - Justin Decloux – ★★★★☆
“Believed to be lost for decades, this is a tight- 70-minute psychological nightmare in which the world turns against a woman. From the director of the Toho DRACULA films!”
