Unlike most Western horror films aimed at a teen demographic, this high-school horror from the land of the rising sun comes complete with gore (including that old Asian favourite, the arterial geyser) and even a fairly racy lesbian sex scene between a teacher and a female student: those naughty Japanese just can't help themselves. The blood-letting and sexiness certainly helps to make this otherwise unremarkable satanic movie a reasonably painless watch.
The plot sees thirteen classmates become trapped in their school for the night by a mysterious Satanist who intends to sacrifice the kids so that they can invoke Lucifer and gain demonic powers; new student and good witch Misa Kuroi (Kimika Yoshino) tries to help her friends escape with their lives, but doesn't do a very good job. That's pretty much all there is to it story wise, the fun being in the way that the victims die, the mystery surrounding the devil worshipper's identity, and all those girls in their sailor-style school uniforms.
To sum up: one drowning in a bathroom cubicle, five mangled bodies, one decapitation by a window, two lesbian sex scenes, several deaths by knife (including one suicide), one crucifixion, one death by fire axe, and the villain being sucked inside out by Lucifer (which sounds way cooler than it actually is).
5.5/10, rounded up to 6 for IMDb.
