Kind of hard to categorize a collection of mostly one-shot horror shorts into measures that judge a book as a whole like the ones above. There were some that were better than others like the Souichi installments, Earthbound, and Smashed. There were others who fell a little flat for my tastes, but they weren't horrible. Overall, a very good collection of Junji Ito's works for anyone interested in horror.
