probably the most Takashi Miike film, Takashi Miike has ever made

They've done the whole 'weird but good' perfectly in this. Made me laugh throughout. You just know that it's not meant to be taken seriously

Has the energy of a looney tunes cartoon but is really rough around the edges and becomes repetitive. Beyond absurd, pretty fun throughout.

An absolutely batshit insane musical comedy, not miike’s best work but certainly more than checking out for a good laugh

A good movie with puppets and stuff. It is better to watch in the right mood

One of my favorite horror musicals. Takashi Miike's best film imo.

A psychedelic romp that will have your head spinning with its abundance of incongruous beat changes. Silly in the best way and loads of fun

Takashi Miike's movies don't always land for me but I really enjoyed this one. Probably partially due to my fondness for musicals.
