A fun and happy movie.

The only other movie to ever give me a kind of feeling that is unexplainable and ecstatic was "Tetsuo: The Iron Man". This movie achieved that feeling with such asperity. But the thing I hate about this movie is the logic of suicide. There is no logic in suicide. You simply die. I can never see the beauty in deaths like these Mansonites in this film. If you kill yourself, you die.

But despite my slant on things this film was a mind bender, very original and bloody. But this film does get to me, and 80% of it would have to do with the fact that I had a music partner who threw himself of a bridge. I don't take death too well, even with my animals.

"Suicide Club" is a unique viewing experience that is difficult to categorise. Part horror, part detective thriller, part social commentary, it is a brave and unique film.

"Audition"'s Ryo Ishibashi stars as the detective investigating bizarre group suicides of young people in Japan. Ishibashi is excellent as always as the world-weary Kuroda.

The opening sequence to this film has to be seen to be believed! The film doesn't hold back in the blood department and scenes are awash with the red stuff. However, the blood and guts play second fiddle to the intriguing storyline.

There are uncomfortable scenes in "Suicide Club", particularly the ones involving a bowling alley from hell. Some viewers will be offended by the uncompromising content.

4.5 stars. Just make sure you watch this thought provoking film to the very end as every moment of this tale contains clues to its meaning. Splendid.

Uh ok. I watched this after hearing the legends and here we go... Is it bloody? Yup. Is it original? Yup. Does it make sense? Not really. Is it good? I don't know--maybe.

I was in a good mood the first hour because it was making sense, but then it was all downhill from there. I do have to say that the very memorable scene of 54 school girls vs. subway train was almost worth the price alone. If you like an interesting story and gore like I do, then the film's drawbacks can be forgiven.

The director stated that the ending wasn't supposed to make much sense, but I'm still not sure how it made it to any film festivals...pretty frustrating.

This movie keeps you on the edge of your seat. Very twisted..yet kinda funny... "Suicide Club" gets you thinking about your own life and how people are easily influenced from TV and how comercialism plays a big role in everyone's life...good or bad...it will always be there. This was a very good movie that I personally can't stop watching...

Being a connoisseur of films to some extent, I must say "Suicide Circle" was one of the most engaging I've seen. With all the violence of "Battle Royale", and all the intrigue of "Case Closed", SC is a triumph of uniquely Japanese oddity (especially the part in which David Bowie's evil Japanese clone bursts randomly into song).
