"I didn't know what to expect but it definitely wasn't this"
2 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

There are a lot of things wrong with this film. It was so close to being decent, but it devolves (quickly) into a pretentious attempt at being clever…failing horribly.

The manga was much better, and at least explained some of the elements that fall flat here. If I were to review it on visuals alone, it looks half great and half abysmal. Cheap anime needs to stop trying to incorporate 3D elements, because it falls to pieces. A 2/5 if being nice as well, considering how I felt after watching.

Also, probably the worst English dub I've heard. It needs to be watched in Japanese, the attempt at various accents are so far beyond bad…

Description

Panic spreads worldwide as the Medusa Virus – a fatal pandemic that solidifies the body to stone – threatens to wipe out the human race. One-hundred and sixty infected individuals are selected to be cryogenically frozen while a cure is developed. Kasumi is one of those chosen for the experimental program.

Forced to enter without her twin sister, Shizuku, her distress multiplies when she awakens to find the facility overrun with thick, thorny vines and ravenous monsters. As Kasumi and six others fight a losing battle to escape this labyrinthine nightmare, questions cloud her distorted mind. Where is her sister? Why did their only salvation mutate into a deathtrap? If they survive, how much longer do they have to live?
