An international trailer for Iguchi's Zombie Ass: Toilet of the Dead has been added to YouTube.

The title of Iguchi's aforementioned movie in the Kaidan Shin Mimibukuro series apparently is "Kaidan Shin Mimibukuro: ikei", not "Kaidan Shin Mimibukuro: igyô". ("Shin Mimibukuro" is the title of a book series by Hirokatsu Kihara and Ichirô Nakayama.) Kaidan Shin Mimibukuro: ikei is a 4-story omnibus horror movie.

BTW, if you haven't already done so, be sure to watch the teaser trailer for Hitoshi Takekiyo's anime feature After School Midnighters (Hôkago middonaitâzu).

Zombie ASS looks awesome!!!!

The only other film that I can think of that I have seen that involves monsters from toilets or turds is Monsturd lol.

Synopsis for Kazuya Ogawa's Killer Motel (Hitokui ryokan): "There is a Japanese style inn located in an out-of-the-way area near Mount Fuji. No one knows if it's in business or not, but the inn is owned by two people: the expressionless host, and his bewitching daughter. ¶ The host lures six patrons to stay at his inn for one night. All the guests feel the inn has an odd feel to it, but none of them pays attention to it in particular. ¶ In reality, the host and his daughter have a hidden agenda. They are hunting in order to feed the host's son: a huge living zombie hidden away in a locked room, whom these cruel hunters dote on as if he were still part of the family. ¶ A twisted tale illustrating conflicts of consciousness, cold-blooded insanity, and the depths one will sink to for the love of one's family is about to begin..."

The working title of Tomomatsu's latest movie project is "Rape Zombie 2" ("Reipu zonbi 2").

BTW, it turns out that my reading of the last word in the title of Iguchi's aforementioned movie in the Kaidan Shin Mimibukuro series was correct, and that of a number of Japanese websites (e.g., the Yubari Fanta one, Japanese Wikipedia, and the since-revised Japanese Horror Movies Database) was incorrect; the word in question is "igyô", not "ikei". The official website for Kaidan Shin Mimibukuro: igyô is now online, although at present it's just a home page.

Zomvideo is scheduled to be screened at Monster Fest in Melbourne, Australia on November 4th.

Here's a description of Zomvideo from Monster Fest: "Tired of zombies? We feel you, and that is why ZOMVIDEO is a uniquely hilarious dummies guide to zombies, a step-by-step instructional manual about how to deal with the denizens of the dead! This comedy-horror-satire aint' your average zombie story! Some fledgling editors working in a dead-end sleazy video company find a mystical VHS that is uncannily related to each undead encounter they face in the wake of a sudden zombie apocalypse in Tokyo city! ¶ The increasing denizens of the dead are led by two very enigmatic and deranged half-zombie women (played by J-Pop stars C-ute) who have a bizarre relationship and the strange ability to control the zombies every move. Playing direct from Yubari Film Festival Japan, this is one very charming, brand new and hilarious gem that is equal parts Shaun of the dead, Battle Royale and Videodrome! ZOMVIDEO brilliantly plays with the tropes and conventions of zombies and turns them into something you have never seen before and is easily the smartest horror-comedy to ever come out of Asia."

We'll see... but my hopes aren't exactly high. ;-)
I'm still looking forward to seeing all of these.

I wrote back on March 22nd:

Quote

The screenplay for Rain for the Dead (Ame-agari no kimi) was written by Koyama, based on the eponymous (with regard to the Japanese title) short manga (viewer discretion is advised) by Waita Uziga (who's also the movie's executive producer).

A theatrical trailer for Rain for the Dead has been added to YouTube.

BTW, Uziga appears in Tomomatsu's Rape Zombie: Lust of the Dead 2.

Below is an ad for Fujimi-hime: aru zonbi shôjo no sainan. The ad credits that movie's source material as Ryô Ikehata's novel Aru zonbi shôjo no sainan, its stars as Rina Aizawa and Luna Haruna (Haruna Runa), and its director as Kôsuke Hishinuma; information on its production status doesn't appear to be available online.
