The artwork is terrific! Reminiscent, but not a copy of the film. The story's very well told also with the confusion/instability in the perpetrator's mind being carried through the storytelling style as well. Recommended for those who enjoy the artwork of graphic novels as well as those who especially enjoy the German Expressionist films of the 1930s.

Hirugashi When They Cry

Higurashi When They Cry, Vol. 2 by Ryukishi07

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Psychological horror in manga form. Very well done. :) Are there curses, demons, ghosts? Or is it all in the victims' minds? I'd recommend this series to fans of Japanese horror films (or even the American remakes) as well as Japanese horror fiction or other psychological thrillers.
