Cyclops (2018) review

Oba combines a composition that emphasizes the troubled subjectivity of the main character with a narrative that highlights the rot within the Other of the law

Onpaku (2022) review

While Fujii does not re-invent the J-horror genre with Onpaku, he does prove the horror-frame  can still be exploited to deliver satisfying horror narratives.

Noise (2022) review

A highly satisfying experience that delivers suspense as well as good dose of touching emotionality.

Rageaholic (2022) review

“A great dystopian narrative that clearly gives expression the director’s fear of certain right-wing tendencies that linger within Japanese society.”
