Keiko, the daughter of a legendary sushi chef, runs away from home finding work at a rural hot springs inn. She is ridiculed by the staff and guests, including the corporate employees staying there on retreat. Little do they know that a disgruntled former researcher has also come to the inn with a plan for revenge, using a serum he developed that makes ordinary sushi deadly, turning those who dine into bloodthirsty monsters.

Just what the fans of “Japanese Troma” expect and want. It never ceases to surprise me. ()
I'd say it's a successful film within the genre. Unfortunately, I'm a long way from getting into that genre, so I didn't enjoy it all that much. It's disgusting, funny, full of weird creations, sushi, and blood, a parody of Japanese movie stereotypes driven to the hellish heights, with good cinematography. The funniest part was that I watched it with friends I had been making sushi with before the movie. My rating is highly influenced by the setting in which I viewed the film. And most importantly: You don't understand the soul, egg sushi roll. ()
