Ever wish there were more plotless torture films with impressive special effects out there? Or more films with sickly, sore-covered sewer-dwelling mermaids oozing pus? Yes? Well then rejoice because the notorious Japanese splatter series that made Charlie Sheen shit his pants and call the FBI looks set to receive an American reboot. According to Fangoria Stephen Biro (whose Unearthed Films released the GUINEA PIG series on dvd in the US) has plans to produce an American series.
According to Biro "Many have tried to copy them, but few have approached their very grim core. Unearthed Films is bringing the white-hot tip of unrelenting gore, unparalleled atrocities and unmerciful slaughter back into the mind's eye of all the horror fans who dared to see what the originals were truly about"
Well that's certainly some pretty big talk there, but can Biro and his team really live up to it? I guess we'll just have to wait until the first entry in the new franchise; BOUQUET OF GUTS AND GORE is released. BOUQUET is set to be directed by Stephen Biro with Marcus Koch (CIRCUS OF THE DEAD) creating the makeup FX and Jim VanBebber (THE MANSON FAMILY) serving as cinematographer
Stay tuned for more on the American series and find out if it really does live up to its notorious predecessors.
