    • Film Reviews

[Heads up: the audio quality is not the best in this episode. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.]

On this week's episode, we're joined by returning furry friend Jules The Nintendo Boy as well as a newcomer named Trace to discuss a little Japanese horror film called Hiruko The Goblin, directed by the innovative Japanese filmmaker Shinya Tsukamoto! Tsukamoto's claim to fame was making a lil' small budget cyberpunk body horror film known as Tetsuo: The Iron Man. After gaining notoriety for making one of the most craziest films in the world, he was able to make his first proper studio film Hiruko The Goblin, which is based on a manga titled Yokai Hunter.

How does the film hold up in comparison to Tetsuo? What does Tsukamoto uniquely bring to the table with this film? All will be answered in this episode!



Intro music from Hiruko The Goblin

Outro music: Estoc - Skrap Yardz Tool (from DJ David Goblin's Ork Muzik 20K)
