kiyoshi kurosawa kairo have to be one of the most mesmerizing supernatural horror film i have ever see . the film be load with extremely dark and brood atmosphere and some scene actually scar me . the photography by junichiro hayashi be truly beautiful and the score be very haunting . the theme of kairo be that at the end of the line there isn not anything except a fearful nothingness no heaven or hell and just a miserable eternity of living in between state . the film be cold and bleak and even nihilistic in it portrayal of total isolation . kairo be pretty slow moving and there be absolutely no gore and so fan of scream or similar crap will be disappoint . still the visuals be amaze representdark sky and desert street and crawl shadow will leave you stun . a must see for fan of japanese horror . positive .
