Amongst the postmodern masses that squeeze into the public transport: cell-phone addicted businessmen clones, a child with a human brain as a pet, leather clad, militant law enforcers, and a 17-year-old schoolgirl (Luchina Fukisaki) with the psychic ability to receive visions from each person on board. Oppressive paranoia builds when a pair of convicted homicidal rapists join the ride and escape their abusive police escorts. Claustrophobic sets, a rabble of strange and detailed characters and bursts of excessive violence set the stage for an explosion of chaos in this psychologically charged dystopian sci-fi horror.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe brain-child of wunderkind director Hiroki Yamaguchi; who completed the film aged only 23 before it became the hit of the 2004 Fantasia Film Festival; Hellevator: The Bottled Fools (aka Gusha no bindume) makes its worldwide Blu-ray debut and is presented here in a newly graded master in a much-treasured special edition!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLimited Edition Contents (first pressing only)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDouble-walled slipcase with brand new artwork by Ilan Sheady of Uncle Frank Productions\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIllustrated collector's booklet featuring writing by Pieter-Jan Van Haecke and Jonathan Clements\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpecial Features\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePresented in a newly graded and upscaled remaster approved by the Director and cinematographer\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eand also the original version in 720HD.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUncompressed English DTS-HD Master Audio 2:0\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNEW Social Order and Psychological Collapse in Hellevator: Video Essay by Robert Edwards\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNEW Fatal Floors - Elevated Horror: Video Essay on Elevators in Horror Cinema by Darrell Buxton \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNEW Interview with Director Hiroki Yamaguchi\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNEW Making-of featurette\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNEW Opening Day Stage Greeting featurette\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eImage Gallery\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNEW Pilot trailer\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNEW Unreleased Trailer\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReversible Sleeve featuring two artwork choices\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJapanese language with English Subtitles\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Open Frame Media","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41035386159153,"sku":null,"price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/9878\/2001\/files\/rn-image_picker_lib_temp_db135c57-2433-4e13-a27f-d61faf50b962.png?v=1780892250","url":"https:\/\/openframemedia.co\/products\/hellevator-the-bottled-fools-limited-edition-treasured-films-blu-ray-region-b","provider":"Open Frame Media","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
