A mish-mash of genres that tells the story of how a forgotten rock song saves the world from ultimate destruction, Fish Story is easily one of the best Japanese films in years.

I figured that it would be quite a long time before it officially hit North American shores, but hey, it’s certainly nice to be wrong about this – while there’s yet to be a planned DVD, the film just popped up on Netflix: Instant Watch. If you have the service, be sure to check it out.

*UPDATE* Or not. It appears that Netflix links to the wrong film. Hopefully this will be fixed.

Trailer

The Exorcist, in an extended director’s cut edition, will screen for one night only across the country thanks to Fathom. I never considered this nearly as good as Exorcist III and the director’s cut kind of ruins parts of the film, but the big screen treatment should be nice and will also feature never-before-seen, on-set footage.
