Product Description Welcome to Zoo. In order to survive, you have 5 choices. This collection of shocking, unpredictable stories features the first screen adaptation of author Otsuichi's works. Working with five different directors, Zoo features five stories (four live-action, one animated) of fear, sadness and pain. Kazari and Yoko: The mother of twin sisters, Kazari and Yoko, loves only one of her daughters, and abuses the other. When the abused tries to break free, things take shocking turns. Seven Rooms: One day, a young boy and his older sister find themselves trapped in a small, concrete room. There are seven rooms in all, each containing a different prisoner. On the sixth day, everyone will be massacred. Can they survive? When the Sun Shines: CG animation about a unique man learning about life and death in a world where most of humanity has already died out. So Far: A young boy's father is convinced that his mother is dead. The mother is convinced the father is dead. The boy is the only person that both father and mother can see. Zoo: A man kills a woman at an abandoned zoo and takes pictures of her dead body everyday. Then suddenly the zoo is gone and the line between reality and fantasy becomes blurred. Special Features: Making of So Far and Seven Rooms, Trailers, TV spots. Languages: Japanese with English subtitles. Review Unpredictable and miles better than many of the Japanese scary tales of terror and horror that have actually been released in the States. --Blackholereviews.blogspot.comLike one of the old Amicus anthologies from the '60s/'70s, Zoo takes the popular short story collection by Otsu-ichi and turns five of its installments into very interesting mini-motion pictures... this insightful horror omnibus deserves any serious fright fans attention. --DVD TalkUnknown gems like this need significantly more recognition. --Ryan's Movie Reviews

About the Director Otsuichi published his first works while still in high school. Before the age of 30, he had become one of Japan's most respected writers of genre fiction. Under the unusual pen name of Otsu-ichi (based on a symbol taken from a favorite handheld device), Hirotaka Adachi has created a fictional canon everything from novels to manga that utilize the standard elements of horror to explore personal, social and even political issues. Zoo represents the first time that Otsu-ichi's works have been adapted for film, and after watching the five fascinating films collected here, it's clear that the future is very bright for this novel new voice in Asian macabre.

A powerful emotional rollercoaster of brutality for the viewer
A strong movie not for the feint of heart. Each segment will draw you in deeper. Powerful stuff. Hard to watch at times. Each segment is very short yet manages to get a lot done. This one is a roller coaster and I am surprised more people don't talk about this movie. The one word that best fits this is "BRUTAL". This movie shows you don't have to load up on guts and gore to put a viewer through the wringer.

Dark and twisted
4 of the 5 stories here are AWESOME. One sucks. In Juicy' opinion Zoo the short listed as the Title is the weakest. But holy crap the others are great storytelling on the dark side. WARNING the cover has nothing to do with the shorts. If you are looking at this than you probably don't mind subtitles and already are into j-horror. This is like a Creepshow for the Japanese and well worth the few bucks. No gore. Only 4 stars cause only 4 of 5 stories were good to Juicy at least.

I seem to have liked it better than most.
Zoo (various directors, 2005)If you're going into Zoo looking for an Asian horror film, or something like the wonderful miniseries Mr. Stain on Junk Alley (as I did, thanks to the guy on the cover--and I will add my voice to those who were very disappointed he never actually shows up in the movie), you're most likely going to be disappointed by this flick. It reminded me more of the work of Pan-ek Ratanaruang; it's all very sedate, very slow-moving, with the odd flash of almost inexplicable violence now and then. No, Rampo Noir this is not. But for what it is, it's not bad at all.The movie consists of five entirely unrelated stories, each directed by an up-and-coming Japanese director. The central story of the lot, "SO-far", by first-timer Komiya Masatetsu, is probably the best of the lot, though the ending does chicken out a bit. In it, a child (first-time actor Kenta Sugasagi with the kind of performance that can make a career) and his mother (Kyoka Suzuki, soon to be in the much-talked-about Japanese remake of Sideways) lose the family's father (Reincarnation's Tetta Sugimoto) in a horrible car accident. At the exact time of the accident, the child sees his father in the living room. That's nothing unusual, but the apparition doesn't actually go away. Once the mother comes to believe, the child begins to act as a bridge between the world of the living and the world of the dead. This has some unexpected consequences, and soon the child stops being able to see both parents at once.The above synopsis doesn't sound much like a horror film, does it? I reiterate: this is no horror film. Even the movie's most explicitly horrific piece ("Zoo") is a slow-paced and intellectual piece of filmmaking rather than an actual horror movie. You will not find resolution in these mini-films, all of which trade extensively on ambiguity. There are those of us who like that sort of thing a great deal, and for us, I strongly recommend seeing this. However, it's certainly not a film for everyone. ***

STOP TAKING MY PHOTO
Zoo is composed of five separate stories, the last of which is actually called "Zoo."The first three episodes had wicked twists to them and I enjoyed them in a Hitchcock type of fashion. The animated episode was a complete let down and "Zoo" being an anti-climatic "meh." Worth an inexpensive purchase.Guide: No f-bombs or sex. Brief animated nudity.

Fantastic
So glad I found this here, as it is not widely available. It's/they're a really great watch.
