Psycho Sushi is a curious blend of comedy and crime, directed by Lisa Haisha in '97. It captures that late '90s vibe perfectly, with a quirky yet darkly humorous tone. The story follows an American model whose innocent book about her modeling days in Japan turns into a chaotic chase from the Yakuza. The pacing is all over the place, which somehow adds to its charm; you never know what absurdity might come next. The performances are enjoyable, especially the lead, who manages to balance vulnerability with a fierce determination. The practical effects have this rawness that makes the film feel grounded despite its outrageous premise. It’s definitely one of those titles that stays with you long after the credits roll.
