Japanese Hell (1999)

The third film called Jigoku in japanese I've watched, the first one was Jigoku (1960), the second was known as The Inferno (1979).

I watch this film after finishing The Inferno with their gorgeous visual and captivating story, then there's this film feels like a B-movie.

The story of how the characters sin are different actually with another 2 earlier films so it gives a little bit variety, the first story with the pedophile (?) got the right portion; but the second story with the sect, i find it interesting but at some point it started to feel too long & draggy.

The torture scene I find it boring, I can't help but missing the great build up toward the torture scene in The Inferno that makes it so emotional and terrifying.

So what I like the most is the message this film trying to deliver is that the torments of hell are no joke, so be people who do good and are diligent in worshiping according to their respective religions so that we will be admitted to heaven. Just become a good person.
