The director of this movie died of cancer a year after this was released... I don't wanna sound like a prick, but... coincidence?
This movie utlizes (sp?!) use of CGI, blue screen etc. Was also possibly made on a budget of $70,000~$100,000. The lowest of low-budget of live action manga. The creator of Devilman, Go Nagai, makes a guest appearance in this as a Shinto priest or something... he must have been offered sex with 16 17 year old virgin girls for him to show his face in this. It's just for the fans, but seeing Go appear was the only elevating point about this movie.
I could slag this movie off in more than one way, but what would be the point, y'know? Seriously there is one thing worse than $70,000,000 Hollywood movies, and that's low budget manga live action adaptations, and, if there is a king of the worse manga live action adaptations of all time, it has to be Devilman. I'd rather watch every 80s horror b-movie in a week, than watch this for a second time.
My rating: 1.8/10
