Didn't see this posted anywhere so I thought I would put a link to it. Keizo Murase, who made the suits for Varan, Matango, et al., is making the puppets for a new kaiju film. So check it out.

This looks bad ass. I am going to put in the $50 for the blu ray reward. It'd be worth it just to get the detailed suit making instructions!

This is just so cool, especially since the story it's based on inspired the movie that inspired Godzilla! To go back and readapt the story in a culturally Japanese context is awesome!

I spent a long time mulling over whether I could justify £28 for a 30-minute short, but finally bought it. The movie itself is impressive, especially the atmospheric lighting and air of melancholy to the story. Unfortunately it's ruined by the worst subtitle track I've seen since Mill Creek's first pressing of Gamera 3. Yes, it's that bad. There are numerous instances of translation errors, awkward wording, and typos. Some are just distracting; the worst reduce some lines of dialogue to gibberish. How something with a mere 30-minute runtime was released in this state is beyond me, especially with such a high price tag.
I emailed SRS two weeks ago to ask if there's a corrected disc, but haven't received a reply yet.
