Japan makes the best stuff. Take Casshern: The Robot Hunter, for example. Look at the title of this movie, it has robotic goodness baked right in! At one point they even speak of Roboticists. Who would have thought? I wonder what kind of training Roboticists would have to go through, how much school?
The movie takes place during a civil war. There is a family: the father is a scientist, the son gets drafted, and mother is blind. Anyway the father is hired by the government to work on a project to create new soldiers by using the body parts of the deceased. Wouldn’t you know it, apparently reanimating the dead isn’t a smart idea, don’t know why.
You’ll have to watch the movie to find out what happens next, just know there are robots and amazing visuals. The director of the movie worked on music videos before this film and the style has carried over in this feature length film.
