Here’s a crazy trailer for the 2009 New York Asian Film Festival Trailer by Subway Cinemas. (They took it up a notch or two from the 2008 trailer.) This year the New York Asian Film Festival says “fiddle dee dee” to the economic apocalypse and they’re singing in the rain of fire and brimstone that heralds the end of the world. It’s their biggest, most ridiculous festival ever!
Highlights include:
Opening Night Film – Written By (Hong Kong) with a special appearance by actor Lau Ching-wan and writer/director Wai Ka-fai
Centerpiece Film – Vampire Girl vs Frankenstein Girl (Japan) with a special appearance by director Yoshihiro Nishimura, action choreographer Tak Sakaguchi and visual effects supervisor Tsuyoshi Kazuno
Closing Night Film – Be Sure to Share (Japan) with special guests, director Sion Sono and the film’s star, Eiji Okuda
These three films will be World Premieres. The festival runs from June 19th to July 5th, and this year they’re screening a record-setting 50+ titles! More films listed here. Sample some of the film in the trailer.
