Carved: The Slit-Mouthed Woman
Directed by Kôji Shiraishi
In this violent Japanese fright flick based on a popular urban legend, a disfigured female ghost begins kidnapping children in a small town. They call her the “Slit-Mouthed Woman” because a gash across her face gives her a monstrous appearance, similar to the villain in ICHI THE KILLER. When local kids start disappearing, two teachers realize they must stop her before their students wind up dead. Though Kôji Shiraishi's (GROTESQUE) terrifying tale owes a clear debt to CANDYMAN and RINGU, the devlish director manages to put his own uniquely perverse spin on the subject matter.

Knowing some of the background on this character I had high hopes for this. If more time had been taken this film could’ve been interesting. I actually just saw a short on this character and it was better than this film.
Really sad but really good
Slow and boring.
Movie had some slow moments but good suspense and tension. She was scary af
Brutal and ultimately senseless.
