Evil Does Not Exist takes its time. At the beginning there’s foreboding music on the soundtrack as the camera moves across nature and vegetation. Then a character appears out of nowhere, startling the audience. Almost half an hour passes before a character even speaks.

The Ringu franchise has a much more convoluted history than most people realize, with Koji Suzuki’s original novel actually being part of a genre-bending trilogy that differs greatly from the established mythology of the films. In fact, before Sadako ever made the leap to the big screen (and consequently overseas), her first live-action appearance was in an obscure TV movie that preceded Hideo Nakata’s film by 3 whole years – and that’s not even mentioning the Korean adaptation from 1999.
My point is that the Ringu films have always thrived on iteration and innovation, with each new installment adding something new to the Suzuki’s original story and helping to propel Sadako to international infamy. These updates don’t always work, like in the case of 2012’s absurd Sadako 3D, but even then, the results are still usually entertaining. The latest of these narrative refurbishings comes in the form of Hisashi Kimura’s Sadako Dx,...

When it comes to getting rid of cultural stereotypes, art plays an important role in teaching people about cultures, the way(s) they are perceived and how some of these ideas may be wrong and therefore worth correcting. Interestingly, being or even living in a new culture oftentimes coincides with the fact people suppress that part of themselves in order to not cause any attention due to the aforementioned stereotypes. Taiwanese-American director Kevin Wong, also known under the acronym Keff, explained in a Q&a about his 2019 short feature “Secret Lives of Asians”, that he tried to keep the Asian part of himself hidden because the neighborhood his family had moved in was predominantly white. His short is therefore not just a play on the kind of movies which Asian cinema, Hong Kong, Chinese and Japanese especially, have become famous for, but in a way also the conclusion of his...
