	DVD Talk Review: Kazuo Umezu's Horror Theater, Vol. 1
		Umezu who is slight, short, gangly, corpselike pale, with puffy eyelids that frame bright and lively, dark pooled eyes.
		He is the case where to look at the author, you instantly get an impression of the work, and in Umezu's case, it is work of the dark and disturbing side of storytelling.
		Umezu has been around the manga scene since the 50's and he specializes in the horror mix of the psychological and the grotesque, usually leaning towards the latter.

	Anime on DVD
		Kazuo Umezu returns with the second frightening volume of his Scary Book anthology series.
		It's slightly and unintentionally comical the way the heroine is screaming and raving about butterflies most of the way through, and some of her actions don't help her case much when people start to declare her insane, but it's quite a compelling read.
		Again, my preference is more for physical horror and Umezu's stories tend to be psychological horror, but they're twisted all the same and I really liked the unique phobia take and the fact that I never quite knew where this story was going.

	Kazuo Umezu, L'Ecole emportée
		Pourtant, Umezu réussit à constamment peupler son récit d’éléments nouveaux, de fausses pistes aussi.
		Car Umezu joue avec ses personnages comme avec des souris de laboratoire, les testant sans arrêt, modulant leurs réactions à chaque rebondissement.

		When I'm promised that Kazuo Umezu's Orochi: Blood is one of manga's greatest gothic horrors, then you can imagine my excitement and hope that maybe...
		Umezu plunges us into Lisa's life without warning, and it's only after we get quite an eyeful that he finally pulls back a bit and we first meet our narrator Orochi.
		Umezu's art is as creepy as his stories.

	Ain't It Cool News: The best in movie, TV, DVD, and comic book news.
		After the release of the first volume of Kazuo Umezu's child endangerment masterpiece Drifting Classroom, it was rare to find anyone with a tenuous opinion of the work.
		Conversely, Umezu is still guilty of felony degree melodrama and the series' progression isn't going to convince readers who didn't care for the initial volume.
		While Umezu might not be strictly playing honest with the audience, the approach does yield several benefits.

		Within the arena of unsettling Japanese horror, Kazuo Umezu is something of a legend.
		His works, fueled by character-driven plots that sink deeper and deeper into the realms of the distraught, capture many subtleties that other artists in the genre lack, making his something of an enigma to the artform.
		I have been familiar with Kazuo Umezo's work since we own a few of his graphic novels and my mom basically translated what was going on for me. The novels were volumes in a series of horror stories that were both intriguing and creepy and I really liked them.
