This movie is dark and twisted. I love dark and twisted. The cinematography is gritty and with great light play. The story is totally based in fiction and has bittersweet friendships that are taken to an extreme. There is a lot of great action scenes although I will say that everyone in this movie should go to a shooting range. They waste a lot of ammo. ;-) What makes this movie great is the relationship between the male lead characters, Kei played by Hyde and Sho played by Gackt. They are beautiful men, great artists and surprisingly enough can also act. Thank you my dearest yuh dong saeng for recommending this movie. I also recommend this movie to anyone that likes vampire fiction and action movies.
