The humanity is suffering from murders all over the globe, called "Mincemeat murders". High school student, Izumi Shinichi has a parasite living off him, having replaced his right hand, and he might be the discoverer of truth.
Parasyte is based on a manga which I've never read, and an anime which I've never seen, so I'm coming into this story fresh. It features aliens with razor-sharp transforming heads, a trusty sidekick in the form of a chatty alien hand and poor people who get sliced in half like it's nothing. Japan's special effects has improved over the few latest years, though still miles away from what you see in Hollywood blockbusters. They do their job pretty well in Parasyte with faces that opens up like the peel of an orange and hands that instantly transforms into giant knifes. It's a gory, fun spin on the Invasion of the Body Snatchers formula with some awesome alien action thrown in, resulting in an entertaining alien adventure.
Genre: Horror/Sci-Fi
