UPDATES A'PLENTY
Updates! Updates! Get your piping hot updates right here:
LEFT HAND OF GOD, RIGHT HAND OF THE DEVIL - Shusuke Kaneko's of GAMERA fame's next project is in production, and it's a slasher film. Fangoria is covering it and here's their first set report. "This film turned out to be fairly grisly, by Japanese standards." I'll say. It's looking at a Summer 2006 release date. (Thanks to Twitch for the info)
THE HANGING GARDEN - busted for possession director, Toshiaki Toyoda, has been let out of movie jail by Asmik Ace, which almost dumped his latest film when Toyoda was arrested. The flick's at AFM right now, and you can see a trailer here (scroll down) and read a glowing review from the Japan Times here. Apparently the movie even got its Japanese release on October 8. (Another tip of the hat to Twitch)
NANA - the manga-based hit film about the friendship between two women named Nana has been doing such great box office that, according to Hoga, the producers have announced a sequel. With 13 volumes of the manga to choose from they don't risk running out of stories.
