Every single time I watch or think about this episode I end up crying. Just knowing the ending makes me sad.
Going into this movie, I thought that Victor would end up with Emily. I was pretty sad that it didn't end with them together, but I understood Emily's reason for not being able to go through with it. That scene honestly almost made me tear up.
Extremely different than what I expected the first episode to be. Nice to see where it all began.
I did NOT see that plot twist ending!
This movie really scared me as a kid.
The most unique movie I have ever seen.
The child actress for Esther was fantastic.
Absolutely amazing. Definitely the best cartoon I have seen in years.
This movie is way too ambiguous. It doesn't explain any of the events that happen and leave everything completely open. In some cases, this would be a good thing, but in this case, it actually ruins it. I will say the one thing that was done well was the basement scene. That is the only part in this movie I can say I was genuinely impressed by as well as the performance by Larry Fessenden. He was the only interesting character and he died halfway into the movie. Lyla was probably the most unhelpful and unbearable character I've seen in a while. They added in a 4th character at the end who was completely not needed and did not add anything other than the killing of two more people. We have no background information on what these "things" are. Are they aliens? Who is this person? Is he part of the CIA? Why did he shoot and kill the two of them? Why did the "things" attack people? Instead of this, it gave shots of those that died with a cheap jumpscare-to-end-the-movie which is typically a cop-out and no way to end a movie. I would rather have seen some shots about where those "things" came from, or why they are here. They always seem to have some sort of resolution in the end, but this movie seems to be missing it.
Extremely sad yet sweet episode.
I felt so uncomfortable watching this. I liked the art though.
This movie has the same twist as the Korean movie A Tale of Two Sisters.
This one made me a tad confused. So was she aware of what was going on the entire time?
The plot twist at the end was chefs kiss though I can't help but wonder, aside from it being for the episode's sake, why would they decide then and there to transport her body back to his yard? Imagine if the sheriff was bluffing and stayed there just to see what would happen? He said he'd forget about it unless actual proof came along. They would've been in the clear
The twists in the second half were chefs kiss

I was invested in the show for the first 3 episodes. After that it felt very dragged out and boring. I found myself skipping through the making of the cake process and onto the gameshow aspect. Host was quite annoying as well.
I liked where it was going, but the ending was shit
This has the exact same twist as an M. Night movie though this film is a little older.
The ending is very chilling, actually. We're so used to the victims in these sorts of movies to be saved, either by someone or their captor. I truly thought that he was going to hear her pleas and let her go, or at least talk to her. But he was dead silent, just digging a hole to bury her in. This film is not memorable to me personally, but I did feel somewhat invested long enough to see it through to the end.
This through me for a loop in the most literal sense.
Hope this comes to DVD/Blu-ray. I love X Japan.
As a fan of yaoi, I really like this episode's satire.
The ending was the best part imo.
Now THAT is what I call creepy.
I liked the movie except for the ending. The plot twist seemed very obvious after she came out to John in that black dress.
The opening is like a minute long and then ending is also a minute long leaving about a minute of content.
I liked it, but I can see why people would not like it.
This movie is so incredibly weird and random. What's not to like about it?
Eugene is the best character in the entire film.
