NO HALLUCINOGENS REQUIRED
01.27.09The beauty of Japanese filmmaker Takashi Miike is that when you watch one of his films, it’s like opening the door to a parallel universe where anything can happen, especially if it’s really f-cked up and involves lactating. After the jump you can watch the trailer for his latest, Yatterman, “a big-budget, live-action adaptation of classic anime.” It’s like Roland Emmerich meets a Japanese game show. And yes, that’s a robot pig with hearts for eyes in the screencap. Behind him? A guy dressed as a rat. Consider yourself warned.

Fuck Takashi Miike!
I did not see any tentacle porn in that clip therefore I refuse to believe this is from Japan.
I wish baristas would lactate in my latte.
Only the male ones.
Whatever happened to that western Miike was doing with QT? Did it get released? Watched a fun Korean Western – or should that be an Eastern? – called “The Good The Bad and The Weird” recently.
In Japan, this is considered a true story.
Charlie, I watched Sukiyaki Western Django yesterday. It Sukiyaki Western Sjucked Bjalls.
CB: Yeah, what happened to that? Kind of sunk without trace… It did look cool.
A barista with big jugs milking my latte might make Starbucks worth the six bucks.
I wish I had a robotic pig. Then I wouldn’t have to bring the real thing home on Friday nights.
Nice coincidence, Burnsy. As mad as this looks i’ve got to say i prefer Takeshi Kitano to Takashi Miike. There’s more dancing in Takeshi Kitano movies.
You wonder what the Japanese writing means?
They all translate along th lines:
“Holy Shit!”
“What the fuck?!”
“Cunting pig ballz!”
“I can’t believe the shit my eyeballs are beaming into my brain!!!!”
For some reason, Japanese films tend to feature more mushroom clouds than American films do. Weird.
Young girl. Strange animal-esque creatures. Japan’s Labyrinth?
Might Morphin’ Mutant Ninja Mario Bros.: Wrath Of The Rat People For Which To Be Entertainment In Your Brain Skull
Coming Soon.
I didn’t know Brett Ratner-san directed the Japanese version of the Watchmen
Why do I suddenly have the urge to go to a games arcade?
(By the way – that movie looks fucking AWESOME)
I wonder if this is what is causing all those dolphin deaths I heard about. That or harpoons.
Have you ever tried to sit through a Japanese film drug-free? Just don’t.
This movie is mased on the Anime of the same name from the 1970`s. It was recently remade as a new series that started here in Japan last year…completely unwatchable.
