ナイスの森 The First Contact
(2005)
Ishii, who directed The Taste of Tea , the animation segment of Kill Bill 1 , and Shark Skin Man and Peach Hip Girl , reunites his favourites, Asano Tadanobu and Terujima Susumu in a bizarre outing, comprised of numerous segments that play out like dream sequences featuring an outlandish mishmash of comic sketches, hip hop song and dance numbers, cheeky parodies of Japanese TV shows, commercials, manga , SFX and other pop genres. Deadbeat characters like the brothers who never score with chicks, the anime production team directed by a dog, and the spunky hot spring holiday girls freely interact with extra-terrestrials and mutants like bloodsucking badminton balls and pigmy sushi chef.
