Fun eco-mystery.

But also, and above all, folklore and a great location. Ishibashi turns it into a mysterious film in which the impact of humans on nature takes center stage. It should come as no surprise that this was originally a manga, so expect a more genre-oriented approach.

Visually stunning, the soundtrack is mainly supportive. The actors do a good job, Ishibashi takes sufficient time to let the atmosphere speak for itself alongside the plot; add to that a beautiful finale, and you have a film that, as a lover of idiosyncratic Japanese genre work, I can only applaud.

4.5* and an extensive review
