If you loved The Parasite Doctor Suzune: Genesis, try Boogiepop and Others

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

Both films are directed by Ryu Kaneda, and they sit in Science Fiction / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Parasite Doctor Suzune: Genesis, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Boogiepop and Others is

Somewhere in Japan. Rustling wind chimes. A strange drug surfaces at Shinyo Academy as students vanish. Is it mere truancy, or is Boogiepop, the rumored shinigami, responsible? This obscure anime property has aged into a minor cult object.
