Much like other Japanese Horror from the late 1990s, Cure is as much - if not more - of a procedural and investigation than it is a horror story. But Kurosawa’s never gives us the comfort of blaming the supernatural, and eventually we meet an enigmatic character who easily belongs in the pantheon of movie murderers right next to Hannibal Lecter. Takabe’s partner, a psychiatrist, jokes that maybe the devil made them do it. In each separate case, the murderer is found nearby with no memory of the murder, or even a hint of what could have motivated them, leaving Takabe no closer to how these are all connected. The case involves a string of unrelated victims whose bodies are found with the letter X cut from their throat to their torso. Check back each day for a new thing to watch.Ī Japanese detective named Takabe finds himself in the middle of a seemingly unsolvable case in Kiyoshi Kurosawa’s 1997 horror masterpiece Cure. So curl up on the couch, dim the lights, and ready yourself for a terrifying and entertaining host of Halloween surprises.
