Dem Trailers: Symbol


A teaser trailer, but what a teaser. Visually captivating but honestly I know nothing about the film so lets see what our friends at Slash Film had to say about it:

Matsumoto plays the main character, a man who wakes up in an empty, white, windowless room and evidently can’t help looking bewildered. As seen in the teaser above, the man notices a dick-and-balls thing protruding out of the wall. According to a synopsis at IMDB, before the monochromatic, freaky angels circle around him, a pink toothbrush falls out of the wall “setting in motion a genuinely bizarre chain of events. Soon the imprisoned man is engaged in an absurd escape the gleaming room, releasing random objects from the walls, creating a life sized mouse trap game...”  The man surrounded by dogs in the trailer is an aging Mexican wrestler who is (non-) preparing for a big match, much to the concern of his family. There is a spoiler-worthy meta-sounding connection between the two.

Yep, craziness! But the trailer did make me jump. What do you think? More foreign mumbo jumbo and a case of style over substance or not? Call it now, gaijins! [via Slash Film]
