Englischlehrer Hasumi (Hideaki Itô) ist jung, attraktiv und wird von Schülern wie auch Kollegen vergöttert. Doch hinter seiner charmanten Fassade verbirgt sich ein gestörter Soziopath: Mitgefühl und ein Gewissen sind Hasumi fremd. Auf Vergehen wie Schummeln oder Mobbing folgen daher bald Maßregelungen der besonderen Art: Er erpresst, foltert und ermordet seine Schüler, um im Unterricht wieder Ordnung herzustellen. Auch cholerische Eltern und misstrauische Kollegen müssen dran glauben, bis er sich ganz und gar in seinem Blutrausch verliert und ein nicht mehr zu vertuschendes Massaker begeht. (Rapid Eye Movies)

One star is for the music and the other is for the jokes. Otherwise, it was a film that was way too long, considering we didn't learn anything anyway. I didn't get me until halfway through. If it wasn't for the music, I would have felt like I lost the time for nothing at all. The psycho is so uninteresting, or maybe I've become too sensitive, or vice versa. :-O For me it was boring.

I had the enormous fortune, one that likely very few people will have, that I didn’t know anything at all about Lesson of the Evil before watching it. Takashi Miike is not a director that I follow and whose films I look forward to, I never liked his style too much, but this one is a surprisingly civil film (it doesn’t mix any humour, there are no WTF scenes, the violence is very concentrated but not overdone as a splatter). It surprised and pleased me, especially with its closing forty five minutes. That it would wade into such pure horror (slasher) waters was something I wasn’t expecting.

Miike is now gradually already moving beyond the borders of the entertaining, and his formal flourishes suffer incredibly from a story and characters that are more or less defined only by a final performance from a shotgun. But during this, everyone behaves so unbelievably, really unbelievably stupid that it’s not even saved by the scene where the teacher recognizes a student by smelling her panties (good boy, raping his charges, and doing it to them with his mouth), while his skull is subsequently shot so thoroughly that pieces of his brain smash the camera lens.

Takashi Miike once again shows how capable a director he is and how much he can adapt. Not that this isn't a tough film, the shooting at the end is overly realistic, but this is mainly a film about how a maniac can hide anywhere. So, dear children, especially in school, try not to cheat too much, otherwise you'll have real problems.
