BIG MAN JAPAN will stomp your wimpy ass!

Hey there! Harry here. You know, sometimes it may seem like Fantastic Fest is a magical venue of awesome. Still other times, you forget how magical and awesome it really is. Then a trailer gets posted on Apple's Glorious Quicktime Cine-Orgy site and you watch it... smile... and say to yourself, "I SAW THAT TWO YEARS AGO!"

BIG MAN JAPAN was a secret midnight screening at FANTASTIC FEST 2007. It was a crazy as fuck mockumentary about Japan's last "BIG MAN" that defends the nation from various giant monsters. The film is completely British in its sense of dry humor and crazy as the most whacked out animated offerings of Monty Python with a decidedly demented Japanese bent. I fucking love BIG MAN JAPAN. It's absurdly brilliant and funky as hell. It's the sort of movie that as you watch it you literally question the drugs, the sanity and God for allowing it to exist, and then you thank the lord you can see it with your own eyes. BIG MAN JAPAN is going to stomp your wimpy ass - with a big steel pipe. It's amazing!

BIG MAN JAPAN's New Trailer is in Glorious Quicktime!
