Damn I love it when we get the opportunity to toss some love at a new J-horror outing. Just yesterday our man Jared P hit you with some exciting RING 3D news, and today I’m doing the same for Hiroshi Takahashi’s new horror flick KYOFU. Makes for a nice compliment, after-all, Takahashi wrote the scripts for the original and remade RINGU. So what kind of news do I have for you here, you ask? How’s a native one-sheet and handful of stills from Takahashi’s latest sound to you? Tasty, right? Better f*ckin’ believe it!
While no details have been released for KYOFU, a nifty Japanese site dedicated to the flick has recently launched (visit that shite HERE). And in case you’re bummed by the lack of plot elements, rest easy. Why? Well, with a track record that includes DON’T LOOK UP, RINGU 2, SERPENT’S PATH, ICHI OF SODOM, and OROCHI…we should give the man the benefit of the doubt. Right?
Currently in post-production, KYOFU was written by Takahashi himself, and stars Kimika Yoshino, Yuri Namamura, Mina Fujii, Yoichiro Sato, Tomohiro Kaku, Yoko Chosokabe, Nagisa Katahira, Ryota Katahira, Choei Takahashi, So Kusakabe and Momoko Hatano.
Enjoy the new looks!
