Detective Story

After putting the Miike quote up the other day I was wondering what he was up to right now. Most of the buzz right now is about his weird Django rethink with Tarantino stuck on the wrong side of the camera again, but honestly I’m more interested in the smaller movie he’s managed to make on the side: Detective Story (Tantei Monogatari).

I found this synopsis:

Private detective Kazama Raita (Nakayama)’s new neighbour is a dude with same name, Takashima Raita (Maki). From the moment he moves into the apartment next door, Takashima finds himself being tailed by the shady Kazama. One night, a female client of Kazama’s is found dead minus her liver, followed by a second and a third victim, one with their kidneys ripped out and the other sans lungs. The two Raitas attempt to uncover the truth, which has something to do with a tragic genius by the name of Aoyama Yuki…

Good stuff. I’m working on a couple of large projects right now, but as they take time I’m hoping to get a couple of smaller things out of my system on the run… can’t guarantee any missing organs though.
