| Film ThrillsDeirdre CrimminsYou will never hear the song "Mack the Knife" the same way ever again after watching Lesson of the Evil. |
| The Film StageEthan VestbyLesson of the Evil at least operates under a guise of exploitation - all of which is welcomingly daft. |
| User ReviewAdriano BThe more mainstream Takashi Miike still rocks. A cutting portrait of a morbid murderer personality more interested in domination than killing (apparently) showing how a motivated single sociopath could kill in the hundreds. And it kills. |
| User ReviewJoshua BMiike is back with this blood-soaked, darkly comic, insane movie that may very well be his masterpiece of gonzo cinema. This will definitely be difficult to watch for a lot of people, but with it's wink-and-a-nod constantly reminding you not to take it too seriously and that it's only a movie, those horror/slasher/Miike fans who make it through should really enjoy it. |
| User ReviewSutham Jvery horror ....i cant guess result ......don know who main actor & actress |
| User Reviewpan4gos .A very cool movie, its also hilarious, but definitely not for everyone. It might just be Takashi Miike's most mainstream movie of his that I've seen, but still pretty crazy as always. Its basically a thriller comedy about a likable teacher who goes on killing students and parents making it look like a suicide. Before you watch it, you have to know what you're in for, its one of those movies that doesn't take itself seriously, its satiric for most of the time and it knows just when to be funny. The story is pretty ridiculous, but it manages to be unexpected and thrilling, its also gory and pretty funny, it had the whole audience laughing. On the other hand, it was kind of messy like every other Takashi film, but these messy sequences and flashbacks are relieved by other scenes with interesting music choices that fit perfectly into whats going on, even adding a little humor to it, and some dance moments and funny dialogue by the students at the wrong moment. It felt similar to the first "Scream" and reminded me in some ways to the ridiculousness in Robert Rodriguez movies. I'd recommend it to people who liked "Django Unchained", "Battle Royale", "Machete", "Videodrome", "A Clockwork Orange", or any Takashi Miike film. |
| User ReviewDaniel EMiike back to his best. Extraordinarily violent and blackly comic. The teacher is one sick puppy, Recommended |
| User ReviewNick PA great serial killer thriller set in a Japanese high school. Looking forward to the inevitable sequel. |
| User ReviewAllan CTakes a while to get going, but when it does, holy crap. Hard to watch near the end. |
| User ReviewMayukh BThe usual calm start from Takashi Miike builds and then bursts into a relentless and joyously violent finale. |
