A review by stguac
Parasite Eve by Hideaki Sena

2.0

im a big fan of j-horror but this one was just okay. plenty of stomach-churning gore but the twists felt forced and impossible to see coming unless you were already familiar with molecular biology. its sort of an outrageous thing to expect from the audience. also there are two incredibly graphic instances of rape, one of which involving a child, and honestly id skip the whole thing just for that alone. there was no need for the child to be a child yet here we are. that plus the incredibly dense technical language explaining lofty details concerning molecular biology and medicine, i found myself being taken out of the experience several times. anyway id skip this one.
