Alter Ego Audience Reviews

Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
BeSummers Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.
Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
sorinapha This is just...not a good movie. I saw Shimizu-san's name attached to this project, I found it on Shudder entirely by accident, and I got excited, but this movie looked from the very first frame like it was filmed by a high schooler-- and it only got worse from there, but in a strangely enjoyable way? Like, this movie was a train wreck in every conceivable way, but it was so damn funny! I know I don't sound very scholarly at the moment, and my intention with taking up IMDb was to become a better viewer and therefore writer of films, so I feel like this review is a staunch failure on my part. But I just don't know what to say about this film other than it really looks like the special effects were made with Photo Booth.However, in spite of objectively being one of the worst films I have ever seen, it's strangely endearing-- though I'm confused as to why Shimizu-san was attached to this project? I know his recent films haven't been exactly good by most people's standards, but this makes The Shock Labyrinth look like a Scorsese.Anyway, bottom line-- watch it and laugh. It's only an hour and three minutes long and it's terrible.
