I loved it. It is a creepy set of stories. They are really intriguing and awesome. I loved watching them in my spare time, and it gave me a great reason to watch this stuff in my spare time on my phone.

A lot creepier than I thought it would be

I haven't watched this in a while (my brother owns the DVD) but unlike American horror, this one really gave me the creeps. I'm definitely into more psychological thriller types and I feel very desensitized toward horror films. My favorite movies when I was in kindergarten were the Nightmare on Elm Street films. It makes me think of Tales from the Darkside or Tales from the Crypt, when I was young, they would often sufficiently creep me out.

I started this series with the last episode because of the lead actor. Teruyuki Kagawa has appeared in a few current movies that I've seen. Tokyo Sonata, 20th Century Boys, and the Shaking Tokyo segment of the Tokyo! film. The acting in this episode was excellent and the story moved quite fast unlike many other J-Horror stories. I also give this series extra points for the gore-factor. Very bloody.
