One of the very first titles released by the freshly revived Nikkatsu Studios in Japan, surreal anthology project Ten Nights Of Dreams received a lot of attention around here thanks to a stellar collection of contributing directors that includes the likes of Kon Ichikawa, Ju-On's Takashi Shimizu, Rampo Noir's Jissoji Akio, Linda Linda Linda's Yamashita Nobuhiro, Otakus In Love's Matsuo Suzuki and Cromartie High School's Yudai Yamaguchi. Yeah, we like an awful lot of the people involved in this one a whole lot but antholgoies tend to fall by the wayside when it comes to international release so I hadn't had much hope we'd see this in English friendly format. Happily, I was wrong. A Taiwanese edition hits February 7th and includes English subtitles. Tasty! Check the trailer below the break.

I reported at http://jadering.blogspot.com/2008/08/yume-jya-ten-nights-of-dreams-2006.html that this film is currently getting a (very) limited release in USA cinemas, with a domestic DVD from Cinema Epoch later in the year (which is in the Twitch release calender).
