Avert Your Eyes! It's Nikkatsu's ROMAN PORNO REBOOT Trailer
45 years after Nikkatsu switched its focus from making yakuza movies to focusing on softcore erotica, the celebrated Japanese studio returns to the titillating genre with its Roman Porno Reboot project, and has attracted some pretty heavyweight talent along for the ride.
Directors Sion Sono (Why Don't You Play in Hell?, Love Exposure), Hideo Nakata (Ring, Dark Water), Akihiko Shiota (Moonlight Whispers), Kazuya Shiraishi (Love Paradise in Tokyo) and Isao Yukisada (Crying out Love in the Center of the World) were each recruited to make a 70-80 minute film, shot in one week, which will start screening theatrically from late November, as well as on satellite platform SkyPerfecTV!
The features, entitled Battle, Society, Art, Lesbian and Romance each revisit the roman porno genre with an energetic mix of nostalgia and renewed vigour, tackling social issues as well as titillating their audiences. Each film also features plenty of recognisable talents on screen as well as behind the cameras.
The first trailer for Nikkatsu’s Roman Porno Reboot project has just been unveiled, and gives a pretty clear indication of what lies in store. Check it out below.
