Kentaro

About This Movie

So, 'Kentaro' is a 2021 horror flick that pulls you into this weird household dynamic. The atmosphere is subtly unsettling, with a slow burn that creeps up on you. The little girl seems to be the only one who gets along with this bizarre flatmate, Kentaro-san, who, let’s just say, has some peculiar habits—like an insatiable appetite and an unfortunate tendency to break things. There's a blend of underlying themes of loneliness and the complexities of family life. The practical effects are quite impressive, giving Kentaro a tangible presence that’s both oddly charming and eerie. Performances, especially from the kid, have this rawness that feels authentic. It’s a unique take on horror that challenges expectations without falling into the typical tropes.
