What they share

Theysit in Horror / Science Fiction territory. If that's the register that drew you to St. John's Wort, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Red Room 2 is

Tokyo. Perpetual night. A dropped deck of cards. Four souls enter the Red Room, ready to play King. Each round escalates. Humiliation becomes torture. Yamanouchi's J-horror sequel is a grim reminder of what some will endure for money.
