Hey folks, Harry here... Takashi Miike is the most unrepentant cult filmmaker working today. I pray to god that he remains so weird and bizarre that no Hollywood Studio ever decides to think that Peter Jackson once made films this weird, and try to woo Miike into "ethical" filmmaking. I need Miike to continue to churn out glorious weird blasphemies... He helps keep the world weird and we need that. Wait till you see the last image of the GOZU trailer. Whew. That's one you won't gloss over soon. Here ya go...
Harry,
Hey! Thought I would pass along the websites to Takashi Miike's latest two films for 2003, THE MAN IN WHITE (YURUSAREZARU MONO) and GOZU. Judging from the trailers, both look like Yakuza flicks with Miike's twisted sensibilities. THE MAN IN WHITE looks the more traditional of the two. GOZU looks really out there and is written by the same guy who wrote ICHI THE KILLER. The sites are in Japanese but feature trailers:
