88 Films is releasing Gate of Flesh (Gosha Hideo 1988) in June. I filmed a video introduction to the film while I was in London. My thanks to Jasper Sharp, producer, Sarah Appleton, cinematography, and Hugo Wu for styling.

There have been 5 film versions of Gate of Flesh, the most famous now being Suzuki Seijun's 1964 version, which is a classic. But Gosha's version has its own terrible brilliance - the set design, the acting are searing in their hypnotic intricate horror and the sense of an apocalypse is palpable. Gosha's addition of an unexploded bomb embedded in the women's headquarters makes it especially catastrophic. Nattori Yuko is glorious in this film and Watase Tsunehiko is incandescent. I am so grateful to be part of Jasper Sharp's mission to get this fantastic and important film into the market and canon beyond Japan.

If there’s one thing true about the modern Japanese light novel, or ranobe, it’s that many of their authors are fond of stupidly long titles. It didn’t always used to be like that, though. When did it change? And – more elusively – why? buff.ly/E8asQCh #Japan
