In the fantasy worlds of Japanese filmmaker Kenichi Ugana, there are furry little alien creatures, goopy-tentacled monsters, outlandish zombies and hysterical demons. There's also wall-to-wall absurdity, a cross between Ricky Gervais, Monty Python and Sam Raimi. On the lineup are three short films (MOJA, VISITORS and COEXISTENCE) and one surprise: TWIST (the tantalizing teaser for a film to be released in 2023). Gore that makes you laugh and laughs that make you think in one bizarre package, guaranteed to send you on a gleeful trip through the frenzied mind of a world-class artist who is now single-handedly redefining genre cinema.
Reviews
Admirable film.
At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.
