( Showing 1-8 of 8 Tomatometer Reviews, sorted a-z )   "To show these characters in the act and give them no feelings of remorse -- and to cut repeatedly to the flashback of the original rape -- is overkill to the highest degree." -- Jeffrey M. Anderson, SAN FRANCISCO EXAMINER   "It downplays the initial assault, referring to it only in fragmented flashbacks, while offering a cogent critique of ongoing attitudes about rape and its victims, particularly in Japan." -- Ken Fox, TV GUIDE'S MOVIE GUIDE   "Compelling revenge thriller, though somewhat weakened by a miscast leading lady." -- Phil Hall, FILM THREAT   "About a manga-like heroine who fights back at her abusers, it's energetic and satisfying if not deep and psychological." -- Joshua Tanzer, OFFOFFOFF --  Click to read the article. -- Marjorie Baumgarten, AUSTIN CHRONICLE   Click to read the article. -- FILM THREAT Cream of the Crop ROTTEN 33%   "A suffocating rape-payback horror show that hinges on the subgenre's most enabling victim ... and an ebullient affection for industrial-model meat freezers." -- Michael Atkinson, VILLAGE VOICE   "There is no psychology here, and no real narrative logic -- just a series of carefully choreographed atrocities, which become strangely impersonal and abstract." -- A.O. Scott, NEW YORK TIMES   "Queasy audiences beware, but midnight-movie bookers take note." -- Michael Wilmington, CHICAGO TRIBUNE --  Click to read the article. -- Ted Shen, CHICAGO READER
