If you loved Strawberry Night, try Pray
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share

What Pray is
Neon motel lights flicker over rice fields. Mitsuru and Maki argue beside a parked sedan with a drugged child locked inside. A single payphone rings in the schoolyard where their shadows carry the weight of debts they thought burrowed underground.
