Musings of a girl with a feverish love of film, horror & horror films. Welcome to my tea party.

Tokyo Gore Police

When I first heard of "The Machine Girl" I was open to the idea. Revenge, severed limbs, Asian school girls, whats not to love? Then I saw the trailer and it totally turned me off. Sure I knew it would be low budget; I knew it would be over the top. The bright red crayola blood just caused my "this movie is going to be a dumb waste of time" switch to flip. So when I got the chance to see it in theaters, I declined. Apparently I was just too good for something so low brow.

Oh! How I regret it!

Enter "Tokyo Gore Police" . The trailer is odd and I may have been mildly disturbed if everything wasn't so goofy. I don't know if I'll enjoy it. But as a genre fan I owe it to myself to give it a whirl.

It's screening in NYC at the Pioneer Theater October 3rd through the 9th. You better believe I'll have a lot to say about this.

Eric mentioned this awhile

Eric mentioned this awhile ago and Ive really been looking forward to checking it out. I'll probably to have to get hold of a 'naughty' copy but cant wait for more insanity. I really dug Machine Girl just for its outright bonkersness, although looking at the trailer for this its gonna take things to a whole new level, reminds me of when I first saw the trailers for Gozu and Uzumaki, I have tyo watch it!!!

Hells yeah

Thank you for reminding me about this!

I just added Machine Girl to the top of my Netflix cue. Drunken Zombie recommended this a while ago and I've been meaning to check it out ever since.

In related news, I need the posters for both of these films. Not sure my girlfriend will be crazy about them, but hey you can't win 'em all.

I have Machine Girl on my

I have Machine Girl on my Netflix and I might have to go see this in the theater. I read a great article in Rue Morgue about it and have been dying to see it since. I might have to go alone because I took my friend to go see Midnight Meat Train on friday and he was pretty grossed out. I don't know if he can handle this movie. Thanks for the heads up about the screenings! ^_^
