Trailer For Japanese Indie Movie "Sensei o Ryuuzan Saseru-kai"
sourceNipponCinema
The great thing about independent movies they dont have to conform to genrerics expected from a mainstream blockbuster, the styleoffilming, directing, use of scenery, right down to the music. Free to express your own artistic license do it your way and when it comes to Japanese movies there is always the cheesy j-pop song half way in.
Sensei o Ryuuzan Saseru-kai is different as its a indie movie it doesnt have the illusive jpop song but the name in English for this movie “‘make the teacher miscarriage’ club” some people may find a little disturbing and even more that this movie is based on a truelife story. Several years ago a group of 7th grader schoolgirls created this little club who harrassed a teacher by re-arranging the furniture and even going as far adding chemicals to the teachers food! The teacher was actually pregent but thankfully the chemicals used salt & alum didnt harm the teacher or the unborn child but soon as the story broke out the media had a field day with the story and you can read the article.
The movie has been directed by unknown filmmaker Eisuke Naito whose only previous work was a short movie called The Prince Of Milk which did apparently tour some of the worlds film festivals.

Exsistence is Futile enter the maze of Life In Trailer for EXIT
Source TWITCH
When you check out your usual sources for trailers for new movies and when that source hasn't got a clue what the hell are they watching it can make it a little more intriguing to check out. EXIT is an Austrailan movie which seems to study life and the many doors we open , the many doors we close and the towns and cities we live in are a massive maze, we dont know whats next or behind that door the meaning of existence.
The movie has a big arthouse feel to it, then it breaks into experimentalist obscurity really hard to pigeonhole the story. The movie has a big inspiration from David Lynch, Darren Aronofksy so whats behind your door?
trailer after the break....
