Reviews
Good , But It Is Overrated By Some
Excellent but underrated film
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
SLIT MOUTH WOMAN IN L.A. is a Japanese/USA collaboration in which a bunch of Japanese directors travelled to Los Angeles to shoot short horror films based around Japanese mythology. There are a handful of tales here all linked by the titular character who plays in support, but the truth is that these films have been made on an indie budget which robs them of professional talent. As such the acting is pretty stilted and the writing bog standard. The viewer is treated to the usual gamut of long-haired ghosts out of THE GRUDGE and RING along with a spoof superhero segment. It's low key and undemanding, but we've seen it all before and the budget is too low to do the subject matter true justice.
