Dead Sushi (2012)
6/10
Attack of the flying mutant zombie sushi!
8 March 2013
Warning: Spoilers
Here comes another twisted and outrageous movie from the mind of Noboru Iguchi. His previous movie was grotesque without being all that fun. But this one is kinda entertaining and sort of humorous. It's mostly messed up and crude humor but that is basically this directors trademark. It's clear the he got a lot of his inspirations from "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes!", "Piranha 3D" and "Piranha 3DD" except this one can be a bit more messed up because of certain areas. There is romance between a sushi chefs daughter and a sushi. This movie has a very low budget and everything looks fake from the CGI to the props and make up. But that sort of makes a flick like this a bit more humorous. Because you can't take any of it seriously, which works for a movie like this. It's a movie you can't take seriously but for good reason. Everything just seems so random but that is the direction Iguchi tries to go and he seems to know what he is doing. Or he just ended up going that direction and it worked out at the end. From start to finish I wasn't really bored with this movie. And actually found it to be quite entertaining. The acting is over the top as it gets but it adds to this movie in a positive manner. This is one of those movies that is so bad it's actually good kinda flicks. The story is very simple like a lot of Iguchi's movie. Basically about a sushi chef's daughter that leaves and ends up working at a inn. Serving business men but a guy that has a grudge against the business men infects the sushi and turn it into flying mutant zombie sushi. Then crazy and messed up stuff starts to happen.
