A Japanese business man becomes a hybrid of man and machine in this masterfully crafted avant garde science fiction horror. Utilizing stop motion and pixelation techniques heavily throughout the film, its a unique vision with cyberpunk and Cronenberg-ien influences.
wacky japanese industrial body horror. the death of a metal fetishist inflicts a curse on his killer that gradually transforms his body into metal. uncompromising sound design + cold grating black and white visuals make it a really visceral watch. interesting subtext about industrialism and alienation and dysmorphia. kinda david lynchy
private screening at my favorite independent theater this weekend...by chance, not design. obsessed w Kei Fujiwara, industrial soundtrack by Ishikara Chu, and the choppy experimental editing....going to get really into cyberpunk and body horror now
absolutely wild and brilliant body horror film, not for everyone but if you’re up for a quick watch that will absolutely leave you in shock + awe, i highly recommend this one
