Viewing Notes

Having these V-Cinema flicks on BD is wild. Esp. for the movies that never got a release outside of Japan, like this one. At least I don’t think it got a release as it was one of the titles in the V-Cinema set that I was unfamiliar with.

I like this movie and the deliberate slowing pacing. Love seeing Tokyo at this time. A lot of it is shot around Shinjuku and I’m pretty sure she drives by what is now known as “Godzilla Road” long before that development occurred. This is very much a vibe movie and one I will revisit.
