I think personally I enjoyed it for the 22 minutes that it was. Not too many people talk about this one when it comes to Japanese horror movies or Japanese horror short films. But! I think this was a fun and brutal little short film that arguably deserves more attention.

It’s also quite perverse and surreal, as mentioned before brutal and grotesque in terms of its violence.

Let me know what you guys think if you’ve seen this.

one of my personal favourite zombie films from Japan so far! and also very gory, splatter fans will enjoy this and Eihi Shiina is in this, she was in both Audition (1999) and Tokyo Gore Police (2008). And considering Arrow Video has done a lot of distribution when it comes to J-Horror, it’d be nice to see a J-Zombie film get a 4K Treatment, what do you think?

If not, it’d be nice to see something like a “J-Zombie” Boxset released by Arrow Video! as a way to commemorate and celebrate zombie films from Japan, some of the other sides of Japanese horror.

This infamous niche underground sci-fi body horror film by Joji Iida, the man who directed the immediate but forgotten sequel to Hideo Nakata’s “Ringu”, Spiral (1998), is now getting this decked out 2K transfer from the original 16mm film thanks to Visual Vengeance who brought us Shinichi Fukazawa’s Bloody Muscle: Bodybuilder in Hell (1995).

Joji Iida also had directed Battle Heater (1989) before he ever directed Spiral (1998) or Another Heaven (2000), so he did dabble within the horror genre before the quote on quote “J-Horror boom”.
