Does anyone know what happened with Tsutsumi's EGG? Supposedly it's really, really bizarre, reminescent of early David Lynch, and played a festival or two around the same time as 2LDK. Has it ever gotten a VHS or DVD release in Japan?

It's funny that they'd make a movie based on a video game (Siren), that was supposed to mimic the feel of watching a movie. Not that I have anything against it, because it's a cool game with a cool story.
