Yoshihiro Nishimura's TOKYO GORE POLICE (TÔKYÔ ZANKOKU KEISATSU)

[The Gomorrahizer]

http://www.gomorrahy.com/images/tokyo_gore_police_mb01.jpg

A page for Yoshihiro Nishimura's Tokyo Gore Police (Tôkyô zankoku keisatsu) was recently added to GOMORRAHY.com, and on that page is a stills gallery for the movie. Like Noboru Iguchi (http://www.noboruiguchi.com/)'s The Machine Girl (Kataude mashin gâru), Tokyo Gore Police is being produced by Fever Dreams LLC (http://www.fever-dreams.com/) (U.S.A.) in association with Nikkatsu Corporation (http://www.nikkatsu.com/) (Japan).

The screenplay for Tokyo Gore Police was written by Nishimura and Kengo Kaji (http://www.kengo.co.jp/). The movie stars Eihi Shiina and Itsuji Itao (http://www.fandango.co.jp/talent_prf/action/TalentProfileDetailSearchAction?unitId=20115&talentId=20045). Tak Sakaguchi (http://www.geocities.jp/karasawa130/) was the fight choreographer for it.

Here's a synopsis for Tokyo Gore Police from the Fangoria article "First report and pics: TOKYO GORE POLICE" (http://www.fangoria.com/news_article.php?id=5782) (January 24th): "Ruka a police officer in a special squad formed to eradicate human mutations that have recently sprung into existence, the result of a virus created by a mad scientist simply known as Key Man. Killing these unwieldy mutants is no easy task, and Ruka, naturally enough, carries a samurai sword with her at all times. Despite being on opposite sides of the fence, Ruka and Key Man share a common bond: the murder of their fathers years earlier at the hands of the police, and both she and Key Man seek revenge for their dads' untimely demise."

Nishimura's previous directing credits include [i]Speakerman: The Boo (Supîkâman: The Boo) - a.k.a. "SpeakerHead from Coal Mine" - and Anatomia Extinction (Genkai jinkô keisû). Primarily a special make-up effects artist, he is the founder of Nishimura Motion Picture Model Makers Group (http://www.nishi-eizo.com/) (Y.K. Nishimura Eizô) - "NMPMMG" for short.

According to actress Shôko Nakahara, the still from Tokyo Gore Police that's at the top of the page for the movie on GOMORRAHY.com is of a dummy of her. Immediately above is a smaller version of that still.

This movie looks truly messed up :lol:. I suppose it should be considering it is a Japanese flick.

Tokyo Gore Police is scheduled to have its world première at this year's Japanisches Filmfestival Hamburg (http://www.nihonmedia.de/) on May 29th.

Saw the trailer - looks absolutely bonkers! Like a cross between Bad Taste and one of the later Guinea Pig movies. Might be fun!

Above is a flyer for Tokyo Gore Police that is somewhat different from the poster for it in my last message. (More importantly, however, the JPEG of the former is larger and has better image quality than that of the latter.)

A second, shorter promo reel for Tokyo Gore Police has been added to the page for the movie on GOMORRAHY.com.

All of this begs the question - what exactly do "Gore Police" do?

"Oh no, that man just got decapitated by that plate glass sheet sliding off the back of that truck! Call the Gore Police!"

or...

"Tokyo crime levels are rising, and the gore level is through the roof. Inspector Gross of the Tokyo Gore Police puts this down to better reporting of gore... Gore prisons are overpopulated, gore prisoners are having to share their gore cells with other gore criminals If you have been a victim of gore and require assistance, call the Gore Police on 0800EATGORE!" :lol:

A few production stills from the fake commercials in Tokyo Gore Police (http://www.tokyogorepolice.info/) have been added to the page for the movie on GOMORRAHY.com; the fake commercials were directed by Noboru Iguchi (http://www.noboruiguchi.com/) and Yûdai Yamaguchi.

Nishimura and his company NMPMMG have been responsible for the special make-up effects in a number of movies directed by Iguchi and Yamaguchi, including Iguchi's The Machine Girl (Kataude mashin gâru) and Yamaguchi's Tamami: The Baby's Curse (Akanbo shôjo).

BTW, if you haven't already done so, you may wish to check out the page on GOMORRAHY.com for Nishimura's Speakerman: The Boo (Supîkâman: The Boo) - a movie that Iguchi co-starred in.
