The Burning Buddha Man (Moery butsuzô ningen, 2013)

The Burning Buddha Man (Moery butsuzô ningen, 2013). Es tremendamente extraña, imaginativa y unica en muchos aspectos, especialmente en su técnica "Gekimation". Pero su guion es tan terrible que sus 80 min se pueden hacer cuesta arriba.

The Strange and Wonderful World of Ujicha

The Director; Ujicha (unsure of his surname/firstname); has indeed delivered an incredibly surreal tale of Buddhist statues fused with humans (!!); a young girl trying to save her family and the evil overlord; Enju.Enju misleads our heroine and lead protagonist; Beniko; played by Nao Hanai (who also wrote the pop music soundtrack; see her Soundcloud); into this dark and surreal world of Budhist statues fused; yes fused; with humans. She discovers her parents (shock!) are one of these fusions and were created by Enju's (Dr Evil for Yokai!) evil science when staying at his shrine/palace on misleading humanitarian grounds!Then the storyline takes a further dark and dramatic twist; perhaps which one would expect from a Takashi Miike film or a Sion Sono movie.Utter insanity follows. It's dark humour and excesively surreal and violent. It's utterly bizarre; unique; horrific and sheer crazy! I don't want to ruin the story or the concept. You just have to watch with a very open mind!Cinematography is great. Art direction is technical and astounding despite the limitations and the low-budget. Audio is fab. Real punchy pop-music and deep electronica soundtrack. It's a box-set on Third Windows' Films with 'Violance Voyager' bundled together as well as a couple of short movies on a 2-disc Blu-ray set.I'm very happy with the movie. It's hard-to-describe as in my 42 years of watching movies; especially arthouse; I have never seen something so bizarre and strange. I thoroughly recommend it and it's a really well-made movie.Unfortunately for some reason a lot of Asian films are really underrated on IMDB and I am not sure why. Please watch them. They will blow your mind!
