New Movie: Cold Fish

 If you haven't seen Suicide Club, you owe it to yourself to see one of the most surreal J-Horror films of the recent past.  Well, Sion Sono, the writer and director of that film, as well as Noriko's Dinner Table and Exte: Hair Extensions, has another film hitting DVD on August 23rd.  Here's your official synopsis:


Cold Fish-from Sion Sono, the director of Love Exposure and Suicide Club.  Cold Fish has won acclaim at both the Venice and Toronto Film Festivals. In the film, mild-mannered Shamoto’s teenage daughter gets caught shoplifting. A generous fellow fish-store owner and his wife appear to help resolve the situation by having her work at their fish store. Too good to be true?  You bet! Shamoto soon discovers the horrific truth about this seemingly perfect couple…who inextricably weave him into their grisly rituals. Inspired by true events, Cold Fish is a twisted, brutal, blood-soaked drama that reveals the underlying insanity of an ordinary man pushed well beyond the brink.

Sure, you say, that sounds great and all, but how about something besides words for my eyes?  Behold, a trailer!
