Japanese New Wave auteur and longtime director of the Ultraman series Akio Jissoji (This Transient Life, Mandala) harnesses his distinctive stylistic sheen in his story of a mad mirror maker, “Mirror Hell”. “Caterpillar” sees the singular vision of cult director Hisayasu Sato (The Bedroom, Naked Blood) at its most grotesque, in his portrait of a wounded war veteran who returns from the frontline as little more than a bloody torso, helpless to defend himself against the increasingly perverted caprices of an embittered wife. Finally, a famous actor is subjected to the obsessive attentions of her limo driver in “Crawling Bugs”, the directorial debut of internationally acclaimed manga artist Atsushi Kaneko (Bambi and Her Pink Gun).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProduced by the same team behind Ichi the Killer and Uzumaki, and with a cast featuring some of Japan’s top stars, including Tadanobu Asano (Maboroshi, Silence) and Ryuhei Matsuda (Blue Spring, Gohatto), Rampo Noir is a stylistic tour-de-force that vividly evokes the “erotic grotesque” worlds created by Japan’s pioneering proponent of horror and mystery fiction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLIMITED EDITION CONTENTS \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh Definition Blu-ray™ (1080p) presentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal lossless Japanese stereo audio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptional newly translated English subtitles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand new audio commentary by Japanese film experts Jasper Sharp and Alexander Zahlten\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnother World, a new interview with Suguru Takeuchi, director of “Mars’s Canal”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Moving Transformation, a new interview with Hisayasu Sato, director of “Caterpillar”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eButterfly Queen, a new interview with Atsushi Kaneko, manga artist and director of “Crawling Bugs”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHall of Mirrors, a new interview with cinematographer Masao Nakabori about working with Akio Jissoji and “Mirror Hell”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Butterfly Effect, a new interview with Akiko Ashizawa, the cinematographer of “Caterpillar”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLooking in the Mirror, a new interview with actor Yumi Yoshiyuki about “Mirror Hell”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArchive stage greeting footage with the cast and directors from the Japanese premiere of Rampo Noir\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrossing the Lens, a feature-length making-of documentary by Tatsuya Fukushima from 2006\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImage gallery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReversible sleeve featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Luke Insect\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIllustrated collector’s booklet featuring new writing on the film by Eugene Thacker and Seth Jacobowitz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Arrow Video","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44221906387144,"sku":"AV621","price":44.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0598\/8486\/3688\/files\/ramponoirbd.jpg?v=1731211737","url":"https:\/\/videomatica.com\/es\/products\/rampo-noir-limited-edition-blu-ray","provider":"Videomatica Ltd (since 1983)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
