Review
Visually stunning Japanese cyber-punk nightmare destined to become a cult classic in the mould of Eraserhead. The disjointed story follows the descent into madness of a metal-fetishist who, after a car accident, mutates into a metal/flesh cyborg. Surreal, bizarre and tragic, you will be unnerved!
