Chime is interested in so much more than simply disturbing the audience. It’s a startling look into the hidden horrors of routine and how easy it can be to lose your identity and gradually become dehumanized through normalcy. Go to Full Review Siddhant Adlakha Inverse 7h
Sometimes what’s scariest is a lack of certainty, and in [Kurosawa's] short feature about a ringing sound that imbues people with violent tendencies, the question of "why" is an endless journey with no clear destination. Go to Full Review Pieter-Jan Van Haecke Psychocinematography Sep 10
With Chime, Kiyoshi Kurosawa proves that he still is a master of horror. He creates an atmosphere that unsettles the spectator with ease and offers, with refined precision. Go to Full Review Ryan Swen Taipei Mansions Sep 5
Chime, by contrast, is almost perversely committed to its evocation of the dread that has been his most widely beloved mode for so long. Go to Full Review William Stottor Loud and Clear Reviews 09/03/2024
3.5/5
Kiyoshi Kurosawa revels in technological terror and alluring ambiguity in Chime, a film which is both frightening and perplexing. Go to Full Review Sean Gilman In Review Online 09/03/2024
Kurosawa’s trick is that all of this blends together because of his mastery of visual filmmaking: framing, camera movement, editing. No director has ever been better at expressing the uncanny, the unseen, and the unknowable than Kurosawa. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

B P @Bradster69 3d Movies‘Chime’ Features Some of Horror Master Kiyoshi Kurosawa’s Most Haunting Work to Date See more Riviu R @RT55277292 Aug 10 Is this chef depressed and crazy, or is the entire 45-minute film just his imagination and what's in his head? See more Kamal T @RT20719002 11/22/2024 Excellent film, definitely one of the year's best, irrespective of genre. I don't think anyone can best Kiyoshi Kurosawa when it comes to crafting horror films over the past few decades. Not a moment of Chime is wasted. See more Read all reviews
