The Good, the Bad and the Weird

Rodney brought news of Ryuichi Honda’s GS Wonderland back in July and we’ve been waiting for more on it ever since. The presence of Chiaki Kuriyama is enough to attract attention but the real draw of this one looks to be the recreation of legit 1960s musical styles. The GS - or group sounds - phenomenon was Japan’s answer to the 1960s British Invasion and for his film Honda has hired on actual GS era hit songwriters to create an entirely new soundtrack and it’s sounding sweet. And now it’s looking sweet, too, with the full theatrical trailer arriving on the scene. Check it in the Twitch Player below the break.
