Two
high school kids are fascinated by the grotesque activities of a serial
killer. They decide to conduct their own investigation into the murder
spree - and once they're on his trail - they begin stalking him. However,
they aren't interested in exposing the killer, but rather to marvel
and idolize his macabre handicraft.
This
story is based on a long-running manga by Otsuichi [Hirotaka Adachi]
who also penned 2017's TV series 'Ultraman Geed.' The
director, Gen Takahashiu (born in Tokyo, 1965), originally found success
with the horror film 'Lady Plastic' in 2001. He is known
for successfully weaving surreal images into his youth oriented cinematic
themes.
