We mentioned quickly last night that Tokyo Gore Police director Yoshihiko Nishimura had mentioned that the next film from the crew behind Tokyo Gore Police and Machine Girl would be Drill Bra Sisters and we had the chance to ask Nishimura for a few more details today. The film is still being written so details are scarce but one of the lead characters is obviously carrying forward from The Machine Girl - which raises the possibility of further character cross overs - and Nishimura confirmed that it will be Machine Girl director Noboru Iguchi calling the shots on this one as well. As for Nishimura? Well, he’s got something big on the horizons himself as well: he will be taking over the reins of the hugely popular Ju-On films - remade in the USA as The Grudge. The next installment of the long running franchise is being written now, series creator and original director Takashi Shimizu will be involved as a producer and Nishimura will be directing. More details as we get them.

I don’t get it ... first he start up a whole new era/wave of Japanese genre films, and then he takes a very bizarre step back to dead and gone J-horror ??? I mean ... another Ju-on ... WTF ?

the drll-bra was the most insane and grotesque image I took away from Machine Girl, so I;m very interesred to see how that project is going to pan out. As for YET another Ju-On...no. Just..no.

It’s interesting news though, because at this point Yoshihiko Nishimura seems to be a bit of a one-trick-pony. A very funny trick, granted, but there must be a limit to how often you can use the same gory jokes.

A Ju-on episode would mean doing something totally different, allowing him to show he has more up his sleeves than just outrageous gore. At the same time he might spice the Ju-on franchise up a bit with his creative quirks.

So who knowns? This might be either a bad stumble or a brilliant move.
Fingers crossed…

(had a mental image of a grudge-ghost with a drill-bra, getting her hair caught in the damn thing once it starts spinning, and it was funny)
