Toho’s 34th Godzilla film is reportedly eyeing a new director after Takashi Yamazaki-directed film Godzilla Minus One won the Oscar for Best Visual Effects. According to sources, the director of the Bleach live-action movie, Shinsuke Sato, will be Toho’s new choice of director.
It is also reported that the film will not be a sequel to the earlier film and will be a standalone work. Fans are not exactly thrilled to hear this news, as they believe that Toho is wasting a great opportunity.

After the success of 2016’s live-action Godzilla film Shin Godzilla, Toho developed three animated kaiju films in a series before developing another standalone live-action Godzilla Minus One.

Along with Keishi Otomo and Takashi Miike, Shinsuke Sato completed the trio of Japanese directors who truly excel in action anime/manga adaptations, with his works in “Gantz”, “Library Wars”, “I am a Hero” etc speaking for themselves. “Kingdom 2: Far and Away”, which continues the adaptation of the homonymous manga by Yasuhisa Hara, highlights the fact in the most eloquent fashion as it currently streams on Netflix, just before the third part's release later this year.

Thanks to Japan’s Yurei, a rich culture of art concerning the supernatural, specifically horror elements, the anime and manga scene has been chock-full of good horror content since the very beginning of the genre. The artistic freedom that manga allows the creators to work with makes its presence felt in a unique way through sci-fi and horror works. From that aspect, the zombie horror subgenre, which was once more popular in the Western landscape, is gradually gaining its foothold in manga as well. If the recently released live-action adaptation of Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead is any indication, mangakas have already created unique narrative structures to interpret the zombie subgenre in various ways.
Zom 100 delves into the delineation of human existence in contemporary Japan, questioning the scope life provides even in the midst of the zombie apocalypse by taking the characters through a journey in a changed world.

Previous Annecy Cristal-winner Masaaki Yuasa is set to direct an animated musical fantasy film based on the life of a 14th century Japanese playwright and theater performer. His “Inu-Oh” is being introduced at Annecy’s Mifa market this week and is intended to be completed in 2021.
The film is adapted from the novel “Tales of the Heike: Inu-Oh” written by Hideo Furukawa, and published by Kawade Shobo Shinsha. “Very little remains in the historical record about the Sarugaku Noh performer Inu-Oh, but with Hideo Furukawa’s bold interpretation of his story, Akiko Nogi’s script, and Taiyo Matsumoto’s images, it’s bound to become an amazing work,” said Yuasa. He said that he aims to make it as a “lavish musical incorporating modern-day music and dance.”
The project is produced through Science Saru, with Asmik Ace partnered as producer and distributor.

If Takashi Miike has emerged as the “master” of anime/manga adaptations, Shinsuke Sato follows closely behind, having directed films like “Gantz“, “Death Note: Light Up the New World“, “Bleach“, “Inuyashiki” and “Kingdom”, during the latest years. One of his lesser known, but definitely among his best efforts is “I Am a Hero” a production that combines anime aesthetics with zombies and much social commentary.
The story is based on the homonymous manga series by Kengo Hanazawa, and revolves around Hideo, an assistant manga artist, whose life is largely disappointing, particularly since his job takes up too much of his time, leaving him unable to tend to his girlfriend or even make his own manga. However, just when his frustration is about to go over the top, a virus hits the country that turns everyone infected into homicidal beasts, including his boss and his girlfriend. Eventually, he...

“If I had had a home, I would have never ended up in Seoul station.”
Over the last decade, zombie movies have become something which many had never anticipated: a part of our pop culture. Looking back at the most prominent entries into the genre, from George Romero’s Night of the Living Dead” to Lucio Fulci’s “Zombie Flesh Eaters”, perhaps no none would have thought the undead would be on prime time television, attracting millions of viewers. However, while the themes of films like “28 Days Later”, “The Zombie Diaries” and “The Walking Dead” may have changed, the overall nature of the genre has not been touched. You can even go so far as to say the real artistry behind the zombie genre is truly to paradoxically bring new life, fresh ideas to the shuffling (or sometimes running) zombies.

It comes from Sato Shinsuke's adaptation of manga Inuyashiki - a film that prompted Josh Hurtado to declare it Sato's very best in these pages, which is no small claim given that Sato was coming off the runaway success of his adaptation of somzie manga I Am A Hero. Well, if you want to see that old dude laying waste on the big screen, we can help you out.

In the plethora of anime/manga adaptations that have flooded Japanese cinema (to say the least) during the latest years, “Bleach” was definitely one of the most eagerly expected. At the same time though, Tite Kubo’s work is one of the most difficult titles to be adapted as a live-action movie, not only for the grandiose battles and the extreme general setting, but also due to the plethora of characters and the number of episodes that form a rather complicate story. On the other hand, the presence of Shinsuke Sato on the helm, whose adaptations of “Gantz”, “I Am a Hero” and “Inuyashiki” were quite good, was definitely a good sign. Let us see what prevailed in the end, though.
Expectantly, the story is a bit altered, in order to fit the medium, although the basic premises remain. Ichigo Kurosaki is a teenager from Karakura Town, whose mother’s...

In the crowded world of movie adaptations of Japanese manga, Director Sato Shinsuke has carved a high place for himself, helming critically-lauded live-action versions of Gantz, I Am A Hero, 2016’s Death Note, and Inuyashiki. Sato-san set himself quite a challenge by taking on the immense world of Kubo Tite’s fan-favourite, Bleach, the story of a not-quite-average 15-year-old boy who sees dead people. At Japan Cuts' Us premiere of Bleach, Director Sato spoke with Lmd about supernatural samurais, CGI, and giving the fans what they want.

Sato Shinsuke knows his way around a manga adaptation. After half a dozen successful such endeavors, it's really little surprise that his latest film, Inuyashiki, is another adaptation of a written work that was also recently adapted in anime form for Amazon. Sato had a big festival hit a couple of years ago with his version of Hanazawa Kengo's zombie book, I Am a Hero, and before that with films like The Princess Blade, Gantz, and Library Wars, all of which are amazing films, which leads me to my next bold assertion: Inuyashiki is Sato Shinsuke's best film yet. Now, full disclosure, there are still a small handful that haven't made it out of Japan and that I haven't yet seen, but of the big...

However, despite severe injuries including a broken neck, the victim's body stands up and walks away.

From a long time now we've had English zombies and Chinese zombies, then last year we got our first Korean zombie movie Train to Busan and now we welcome the first appearance of Japanese zombies in I Am A Hero.

It's now almost two weeks ago that I saw the Japanese zombie film I Am A Hero, a movie which surprised me by being unexpectedly awesome. In my review, I said that most zombie films feature a "hero zombie", one which is harder to kill or is just a tad different from the rest. And as well-known examples I mentioned Bub in Day of the Dead and "Tar Man" in Return of the Living Dead. But with decades of zombie films behind us, and a very successful multi-season television series even, there sure are plenty of other hero zombies. Which brings me to our question of the week: what is your most favorite zombie? It can be from a good film or an excruciatingly bad...

[Guest reporter Jenny Nulf shares her impressions of three movies from this year’s South by Southwest Film Festival in Austin, Texas, including I Am Not a Serial Killer, I Am a Hero, and Pet.]
I Am Not a Serial Killer: What happens when a movie gets stuck in limbo for three years? Well, the director is given enough time to create a slow-burning monster movie that will lurk in the back of your mind long after viewing it.
In a tiny Midwestern town, John Wayne Cleaver (Max Records) works with his mother and aunt at a funeral home, helping her embalm the dead bodies. A possible sociopath, John also chats regularly with his psychologist, Dr. Neblin (Karl Geary), about how to subside his murderous tendencies. Then things start to go wrong when an actual serial killer sweeps through the town, and when Max discovers the identity of the killer, it takes him down a terrifying path of self-discovery. This is not your average, sweet coming-of-age story.
I Am Not a Serial Killer’s slow and methodic pace will keep some at bay, but director...

The best advice I could give you during a film festival is to take at least one day off. Watching movies is wonderful fun, but there comes a point around day 5 or 6 when the idea of a movie just feels exhausting and all you want to do is lay on your bed, eat, and watch television.
So for the most part of my Tuesday I chilled at home, munching on avocado toast and lounging on my comfortable queen size bed reflecting on the films I have so far seen this festival (this also helped because Letterboxd came out with an app and I could rate all of them from my phone!). I came up with a list of favorites because I am obsessed with ranking and rating things. So below I have listed the films I have seen at SXSW so far from most favorite to least:

As hinted in my Day 2 article, I was a zombie on Day 3. After staying up way too late the night before, I had to get up very early to make it to my interview with Ti West and Jason Blum. Skipping breakfast, I drove my little blue Honda Fit over to the Four Seasons.
Not to give away too much from my interview, but chatting with West and Blum was a dream. They’re both some of the smartest men in the business, and two people I greatly admire. Even in my tired haze, I knew that I needed to remember this moment forever, engrain it in my brain so that even when I’m old and Alzheimer’s has kicked in, I will still remember the moment when I interviewed my two favorite people working in horror.
The time after the interview was a little bit of a haze.

Sleep is just one of those things you can’t seem to find during SXSW, no matter how many times you promise yourself you’ll get eight hours every night. It’s even more dangerous when you’re drinking at a bar and your phone all of the sudden switches from 2am to 3am. Thank you Daylight Savings for ruining my life.
SXSW Day 2 began with me filming B roll for an interview with Tatiana Maslany, which was incredible. The Orphan Black star was as effervescent as you would expect, glowing with the radiance of 1000 suns. This isn’t just me fangirling either; she’s an incredibly sweet and funny person and does not have a bad angle on camera. So that was a bucket list moment that I’ll never ever forget.
After interviewing her, though, I had a strange amount of downtime. I had finished my early morning...
