04.21.09 EXPLODING HEADS, BLACKFACE & HERPES OH MY!
If the trailer for Vampire Girl vs. Frankenstein Girl looks familiar, that’s because it comes from director/special-effects guy Yoshihiro Nishimura, of Tokyo Gore Police/Samurai Princess fame. This time it’s like he isn’t even trying. The whole trailer is just constant blood spurting, exploding heads, and assorted weirdness, like a girl with a herpe on her lip. It looks like the Japanese answer to Seltzer-Friedberg. Which is a shame, because when I hear a movie called Vampire Girl vs. Frankenstein Girl I expect coherent storytelling.
Also, what the hell is this supposed to be? Blackface is one thing, but giant prosthetic lips and a big flat nose is taking it a step too far. I learned that at sensitivity training. I mean, what gives, Japan? It’s not like we’ve ever turned your people into an offensive stereo- what’s that? Hold on, someone’s sending me a picture… Oh right. Carry on then.

Needs more Ricky.
Brazil nuts and almond eyes, what a tasty combination.
We have a “hoo boy that’s gay” tag, but no “by gawrsh that’s racist”?
BTK:
Ms. California > Perez Hilton (but not by much)
Would we really be surprised if these started showing up with “Based on a True Story” tags?
This is just a dry run of Nishimura’s plan to put a working stereotype on the moon by 2020.
Whoa. That’s sailing pretty close to the Bo Selecta Michael Jackson.

This would be a great Pocky ad. Wait, is Pocky Chinese or Japanese…I get confused.
I can’t tell if that’s Japanese blackface or Craig Mack.
Fangstels?
I’m aroused and disgusted at the same time. it’s a lot like mom’s funeral was for me.
