Of Monster Mode really blurs the line between the mundane and the bizarre. You've got this young guy in a green Martian suit, which instantly adds a layer of absurdity. Junko, played by Otori Rei, is this housewife whose increasingly erratic behavior after a personal loss pulls the viewer into her chaotic world. The pacing feels deliberate, like it's meandering through moments of stark realism before spiraling into absurdity. The practical effects are minimal but effective, giving it an almost homemade vibe that adds to its charm. The performances are a bit off-kilter, fitting the narrative's strange tonal shifts. It’s one of those films that sticks with you, not because it’s polished, but because it feels raw and unsettling in a very unique way.
