This is better than it has any right to be, given its grindhouse roots. William Fichtner, as always, is awesome…

More Reviews of Boogiepop and Others

I watched the anime and expected something along the same lines...utterly disappointing stuff…

The special effects were horrible with a capital h, but aside from that, this movie was a very good adaptation of the book, and featured better…

Cheesy as hell, but considering Boogiepop is my all-time favorite series, I can't help but have a fondness for this movie…

Not as unsettling as the anime series, but much closer to the novel, which I'm glad about…
