STRANGE CIRCUS TO GET US REGION ONE RELEASE ON TLA'S DANGER AFTER DARK LABEL

Just got a press release from TLA announcing the acquisition of North American theatrical and home entertainment distribution rights to Son Sono's Strange Circus. Logboy ran a link to the Tom Mes Midnight Eye review of that film awhile ago and upon reading it certainly whets the appetite to explore the director further.

I was one of those who liked Suicide Club alot. It was so much smarter than it's premise allowed and fun when it pretended to be smarter than it was. Watching I had the distinct impression of a director whose vision includes all the elements of storytelling- not just images. And of course as we all struggle with the feeling that US Asian releasing has gotten sloppy of late (think Tartan Asia Extreme) this comes as a very welcome addition to the Danger After Dark label.
