An unusual BL story with a lot of sexual themes but has a underlying theme of life itself

"Life" and "Sex" these two are the most important themes of this movie.

So far out of all of the Japanese BL movies I have watched this has been the most extreme. I can't describe it but there's a lot of sex/BDSM set in a horror/slasher setting. I honestly thought someone was going to get murdered lol.

But even through there was a lot of sexual content there is still a underlying theme that is about life itself. Japan has a high suicide rate and it's important for this work to address that. To be able to live and love that's the underlying message.

Even though compared to the manga there's big changes in the 2nd half of the movie, it still manages to deliver the message of life to the movie and have some really hot sex scenes to boot!

The actors did an amazing job in their roles. For a 1st time role Watanabe Sho really gives his all in his scenes not only emotionally and physicaly. Kitadai is really good he played the seme role really well and also played his role
emotionally and physicaly well. Together the sexual chemistry they produced was pretty amazing to watch.

I want to praise director Jojyou Hideo as well, the set locations for this movie is great. It was a great idea to have the setting for most of the sexual scenes to be in the basement of a hospital it really added to the horror atomsphere.
The shots are beautiful if the location is in a basement or an graveyard.

I admit this movie is not for everyone, there's pretty much little consent in the sexual scenes (apart from the ending sex scene) and it's not very sexy (again apart from the ending sex scene). Also the BDSM sexual scenes might be too
extreme for general BL fans who want a more gentle sweeter kind of romance. Plus the themes of life, death and suicide is quite heavy and direct for some. But for those who are looking for a different kind of BL story that is dark, sexy and deep this movie might be for you!
