What is House of Bugs? More New Kurosawa?

Wha? This is interesting ... has Kiyoshi Kurosawa managed to slip another film out under the radar while everyone was focused on Loft and his other announced projects, or is this a case of a film studio taking an old project to the Cannes Market to cash in on his current popularity? I have no idea, but whichever is the case there's a Kurosawa film floating around out there that I'd never heard of and it shares a script writer with Steamboy and Millennium Actress ... anybody got more info on this one?

i would guess, from the use of "epsiode" that its either the "umezzo kazuo" 60 minute film or its his j-horror film?...

Kiyoshi Kurosawa is played out anyway. That d00des films take really good ideas and turn them into boring snooze-fests.

Could be the Umezzo one, but it's not the J-horror. He hasn't shot that yet, I don't think, but they were screening this at the Cannes marketpace ...

Yes, this is one part of the Umezu Kazuo: kyôfu gekijô. This part to be precise, mushi tachi no ie: http://www.umezu-movie.com/umezu_mushi.html

Looking forward to it.
