| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- This is a truly exceptional movie. I've read that there were quite a few differences in the original webtoon (Tales of the Unusual), such as Yaeji getting a deeper backstory and also other secondary characters like Miri (the rude celebrity) and her manager (the creep molester). Even the roles of certain characters have changed such as Yaeji's surgeon is orignally an art student. |

| I'm surprised how under the radar this is. Only 300 members on MAL as of now. It was a fun horror anime movie. Would watch again. My only gripe is I think they could have spent more time on making the ending more horrific. |
| Shoot first, think never. |
| I thought this was a perfect blend of horror and societial criticism, lol. I wish there were more scenes of her feeling guilt for the one they included was great. |
 |
| That was one of the thrilling movies I've watch, and I really love how I was shocked everytime they tried to show gory stuff. Really enjoyed this horror movie, kind of reminds me of Perfect Blue. |
 |
| Kind of cheesy horror, but in a good way, it was entertaining, and it kept me watching from start to finish. |
| So she ended up as a part of his body. And alive with only face? I'm not missing anything am I? How is that even possible, I mean without a brain! And He could've taken other body parts besides face but perhaps that won't be horror enough... Truly an unexpected movie and ending, would've been better if it was more 2D. |

| You're missing the point. The show presented a surreal depiction, offering an alternative conclusion to Yaeji's wish to be loved. Ironically, she received what she asked for but not in the exact way she desired. If you're expecting realism and scientific accuracy from a premise about a cosmetic product that instantly turns people beautiful using human meat, then you're watching the wrong title. |
|
| Very weird but good in what it aimed for "careful what you wish for" combo of psychological thriller and body horror. |
| The recently released Substance was quite similar to this. |
