Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.
A yakuza enforcer must clear an apartment building of its tenants, then finds the eviction complicated by a supernatural presence. Katsuhiro Otomo's live-action comedy spends much of its time with the residents before turning towards horror. Hiroki Tanaka's restless performance keeps the confrontation lively.
