Sion Sono, the controversial and prolific director behind such Japanese-language films as Cold Fish, Love Exposure and Guilty of Romance, will be reaching a new audience when his 2013 film, Why Don’t You Play In Hell?, gets a limited release by Drafthouse Films on November 7th, 2014.
Why Don’t You Play In Hell? is an over-the-top mix of martial arts, comedy and gore. The best way to describe the gist of the movie is to catch its North American trailer, courtesy of Apple.
Sono’s latest film, Tokyo Tribe, will be getting a North American release by XYZ Films (The Raid 2) in the near future. Sono has also just completed Shinjuku Swan, so look out for a trailer soon… stay tuned!
