Watch The Teaser For Horror Manga Author Umezu Kazuo's Live Action MOTHER

After a long and celebrated career as one of Japan's leading creators of horror manga, Umezu Kazuo (also known as Kuzuo Umezz) has opted to try his hand at directing a live action feature film, the topic of which is something he should know a thing or two about: Himself.

Pitched as an autobiographical piece about and by the creator of Cat Eyed Boy and Left Hand Of God, Right Hand Of The Devil the first teaser for Umezu's Mother has arrived with Kataoka Ainosuke playing the stripey shirted mangaka. It's very much just a brief taste at this point but there clearly seems to be a bit of self-mythologizing going on. Take a look at the teaser below.
