The only thing you can be sure about when sitting down to a film by Japanese auteur Takashi Miike is that you've opened a window onto the unpredictable. Sadly, after a wonderfully bizarre opening the musical black comedy plummets into another one of his style over substance clusterfucks. Twenty minutes of actual story padded out to two hours of sitcom style antics raised up only by the inclusion of some intentionally hilarious Sound of Music moments left me colder than the corpses that help the Katakuri family find what’s important in life.
