Editorial Review:

The revelations pile up in this gothic psycho-adventure, as Kyosuke learns that he really is the son of scientist Tsubaki Tokisaka and hospital director Dr. Richard Vincent. He also learns that Shiro's sister, Yui Kirahara, who controls the all-powerful Kirahara Group, has been hunting Flickers to create the SoulAnubis. This composite monster is supposed to help her find Kyosuke's lost twin sister Runa and fulfill her contract with an unseen, Darth Vader-voiced creature. (Runa unconsciously created the Flickers as a self-defense mechanism.) The dramatic confrontation between Kyosuke and the SoulAnubis--who fights using a combination of violence and guilt trips--is awkwardly directed and hard to follow. Soul Hunter offers a staccato, state-of-the-art mixture of computer graphics, odd camera angles, flashbacks, monochromatic imagery, and still artwork, but the story feels like a retread. Rated 16 Up: Graphic violence, grotesque imagery, profanity, tobacco use. --Charles Solomon

5 out of 5 stars Who's Joe Estevez?.......2003-06-08

This DVD is not an actual movie, rather, it's an anime TV series! There isn't any Jon Stamos look alike nor is there a Tonya Harding look alike in this movie. What some of the commenters are referring to is an old movie, whereas this is an anime that may/may not share the same plot. The story in this anime series has many twists and turns. It's interesting!

Also, the cinematography isn't bad at all! Weird camera angles, colors-- everything you see is so vivid. I like this anime series because it keeps me on my toes and the fact that it's different from other anime in the way it's drawn and animated.
