JCAS Presents: Tetsuo, The Iron Man (1989)
Sunday October 17th at 7:30pm
Director Shinya Tsukamoto's film, 'Tetsuo, The Iron Man,' is the dark, surrealistic tale of a businessman (Tomorowo Taguchi) who accidentally runs down a man with a fetish for implanting scrap metal into his body (played by the director). Soon afterward, he begins eerily morphing into a hybrid man-machine, accompanied by twisted, metal-related nightmares. Perhaps his nemesis is not in fact dead, but is somehow masterminding and guiding his rage and frustration-fueled transformation. Now, the businessman must track down the man he thought he killed before the horrific metamorphosis is complete.
Come see a Japanese cult classic as Sunday Night Film Forum screens a series of horror films between September and Halloween.
Film starts at 7:30, discussion to follow
