Title: Pet Shop of Horrors

Genre: Horror/Anthology

Creator/Studio: Matsuri Akino/Madhouse

DVD Info: 1 hour, 20 minutes (4 episodes on only one DVD)

Company: Urban Vision

Summary: In Chinatown, there is a mysterious pet shop owned by a man named Count D. He has many strange pets, all of which come with a contract. If the contract is violated, he cannot be held responsible for what happens. Consider yourself warned.

The Good: This is a creepy cartoon! You will want to leave the lights on after you watch. The stories have a nice Grimm Fairy Tales feel to them.

The Bad: The quality is somewhat lacking at times.

Offensive Material: Ep 2 has a naked mermaid. Of course, since this is a horror anime, it has some graphic content.

Overall: This is a good scare. I loved it, even with the questionable quality.

My Review: 3.5 Category: C

Comment: Tokyopop publishes the manga version. The episodes were originally aired on Japanese TV in 1-2 minute segments, but are reworked into four 20 minute episodes for the US release.
