The animators enjoy depicting imaginative and extreme violence. If that’s your thing (and if it isn’t, why are you watching this movie?), Jujutsu Kaisen 0 does not disappoint.

Jujutsu Kaisen 0: The Movie
Feature-length film of the popular anime series based on Gege Akutami's manga following a young man haunted and protected by the monstrous ghost of his dead childhood friend.
Yuuta Okkotsu is haunted. Ever since his childhood friend Rika died in a traffic accident, her ghost has stuck with him. But her spirit does not appear as the sweet girl Yuuta once knew. Instead, she manifests as a monstrous and powerful entity who fiercely protects him.
Unable to control Rika's violent behavior, Yuuta is helpless to stop the bloodshed that follows from her brutal vengeance. As a result, when apprehended by "Jujutsu" sorcerers--the secret guardians of the world, trained to combat forces like Rika--Yuuta wishes to be completely isolated so that no one else can get hurt. Yet his apprehender, the master sorcerer Satoru Gojou, has different plans for him: he will join Jujutsu High School and learn to control Rika in order to help people.

While it works well as an action movie, Jujutsu Kaisen 0 is also surprisingly effective as a horror film...
