Take the Japanese film industry, which is churning out what apparently is a crud version of computer visual novel Higurashi no Naku Koro ni. Japanese movie site Chou Eiga Hihyou gave the movie a 10 out of... 100. The problem, according to the reviewer, is that the movie cannot capitalize on what makes the game so interesting: Cute characters in a love comedy who gradually become violent and bloody. In live action, that kind of story arc is old hat! Also, we're pretty pissed that the actresses don't have green or purple hair. I mean...hello?!

What. The. Hell. ?. I'll admit to being somewhat of a noob to the bullet hell-style shooter category, but this is just insane. Ten minutes of eye-drying, bullet-dodging expertise from the doujin game Imperishable Night, 8th in the Toho series of for-the-hardcore-only Windows shmups.

Interested masochists can get the demo at the official site or the English fan site. Michael McWhertor

Thanks for the heads up, Alan!
