Film production in Japan shut down in early April as part of the response to the outbreak of COVID-19, and as weeks passed with no signs of an immediate revival, filmmakers began to adapt to the situation by making ¡°isolation¡± films.
Among them is the zombie-comedy ¡°One Cut of the Dead Mission: Remote,¡± a short sequel to Shinichiro Ueda¡¯s sleeper hit ¡°One Cut of the Dead¡± that had all the laughs, energy and charm of the original.
¡°Shin Godzilla¡± co-director Shinji Higuchi has now thrown his hat into the ring with ¡°,¡± an ¡°instructional video¡± with English subtitles that instructs fans on how to post a video selfie with their favorite °ì²¹¾±Âᨱ (monster). The idea is to ¡°catch¡± an invisible monster (Higuchi thoughtfully demonstrates), ¡°magically¡± fuse it with your own monster and send the now strengthened beast hurling toward the camera (but not, Higuchi reminds us, hitting it) to crush the virus.
