Audition

オーディション

An outstanding, terrifying horror picture.

Japanese film-maker Takashi Miike pretty well invented the genre of J-horror as it came to be understood with this shocking, scabrous, satirical movie from 1999...

Audition's twists and turns fascinatingly blur the film's already hallucinogenic temporal rhythms.

The horror is effective and Audition is certainly slick and stylish.

Miike has a Bunuelian talent for turning our preconceptions on their heads as a scare tactic.
