Who should direct a live action series of this kino?
Who should direct a live action series of this kino?
Whichever director that’s terrible with endings, much like Junji Ito himself.
Denis Villeneuve
Is there anyone who could genuinely pull it off? Lars von trier? Or some arthouse indie guy?
David Lynch
It doesn't need to be a 1:1 story imo.
>generic horror manga needs to be directed by some arthouse director because japanese cartoons are le-obscure
My boy Abrams is gonna polish up your tacky nip "horror" and turn it into actual good western kino, just like what he's gonna do with your shitty romcom "Your Name"
>lmao its a relatively popular horror kino manga so its generic
why are weebs always so elitist and autistic? it seems retard like this can never just enjoy that other people who dont ruin the art itself are into it.
unironically guillermo del toro
Who says you need an ending?
But... It already exists?
We're dealing with horror in general, and cosmic horror in particular, the ending should not bring closure.
Imagine being so completely fucking retarded you can't even read
I remember I talked my anime club into show it. Though even I was kinda disapointed in the movie version. Like most Japanese movies, it looks like a made for tv film. Especially around that era, Japan's early adoption of digital made everything look like a soap opera, even stuff filmed for cinemas.
cargo-cult elitism. they think it's generic because so many things have ripped it off, its like some middle-american television addict calling the mona lisa generic because so many portraits that came after it used the styles that da vinci helped to perfect
Yet another misuse of "generic." It's a de facto meaningless word now.
>my bottom of the barrel spooky chink doodles are just like the Mona Lisa!
He was making an analogy, he was not saying that Junji Ito = Mona Lisa.
Tim Burton
the wachowskis
Kiyoshi Kurosawa of Takashi Miike
cast her
Guillermo del Toro could kinda work the visuals well. Just give him better writers than the ones on The Strain.
Younger MEW. Also, I think there's like a dozen Tomie movies out already.
They already did that

It's better, like better art pleb.
fuck off Uzumaki was perfect
and the answer is no one, Junji Ito should not be adapted.
yes he is a genre of his own (and thats a good thing)
what happen to him??? =(
And it was shit.
Nihei would be a more interesting (and probably moreimpossible) adaptation in every way
Hellstar Remina would be scifi kino
And its kino faggot
Late 90s/early 2000s digital japanese stuff is great for that alone
Unironically, Jordan Peele.
"Us" felt a lot like Junji Ito story, but stretched and overexplained.
Based Nihiebro
Amygdala Steinberg
body horror isnt an uncommon genre
so junji ito (minus the overexplained part)
