But this style of animation brings an even more feeling of abomination. Midori is not of those type of horror who are filled with violent exciting scenes that provoke adrenaline. Midori brings you a diffrenet kind of brutality. It provokes you feel anxiety, unpleasantly, hopeless and strangely when you watch some really weird and bizarre scenes.
PS I don’t know why is my upload file Midori still on pending status (show less)
