About
If you want a frantic, metal-fueled revenge ride with extreme transformation horror and nonstop weirdness, this delivers; Not for you if you dislike chaotic, violent, sensory-overload stories—fans of Haze or Parasyte: Part 2 may click with it.
Pros: wild body-horror action; relentless chaotic energy; more coherent than original | Cons: extremely intense violence; bizarre nonstop imagery; not for subtle moods
