The original Death Note films were a huge success in their native Japan - and have sold well around the world - so much so that the producers went out and got themselves a legitimate a-list director for the inevitable spin off. Ringu director Hideo Nakata, freshly returned to his home country where he shot the well received Kaidan, is at the wheel for this one and while two previous teasers have been released none included anything actually shot by Nakata, both being nothing more than announcement reels letting people know the new film was coming. Can't watch it myself where I am at the moment (grr to no Flash player and no admin priviledges) but the new trailer for the film has just arrived and it gives the first true look at what Nakata has been up to.
