Viewing Notes
This was a neat surprise. Don’t know a whole lot about this but my guess is that it was a student film and influenced by EVIL DEAD. Goh, a college student, is having crazy nightmares featuring monsters but in his reality he’s dealing with a yakuza gang extorting him for a car accident. Most of the film is Goh being chased by the gang. Goh has a sympathetic girlfriend Emi who wants to help yet even she can’t prevent his nightmares which seem to be manifesting in his real life. After a long setup things get real nutty.
Cool discovery and I’d like to know more about this film and the production. This was VHS rip uploaded to YT. I attempted to view it on my TV but it looked so bad I just watched on my phone. Still looks muddy but serviceable. Don’t think this would ever have a DVD release.
