the leading man is my tpye

The greatest movie ever made..!

I saw this movie before reading any reviews, and I thought it was very funny. I was very surprised to see the overwhelmingly negative reviews this film received from critics.

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

"Zeram" Spoilers Ahead! An interesting Japanese Film dubbed into English.Let's see. To sum it up. A Girl with the wrong colour lipstick, talks to a computer named "Bob," while hunting down an alien monster.Yeah I know. this prolly is the basic plot to about a thousand "B" movies.Two electrician buffoon like characters, dressed in colours worse then any disco nightmare you can imagine, are also like hand to add to the humour of this cinematic "wonder." No not as good as the "Godzilla" movies, but you'll still be believe: "It's a man in a rubber suit!"

Keita Amemiya is the man. Both of the Zeiram movies and animated series proves that.The film follows a woman from Planet Myce named Iria and her computer sidekick Bobu coming to Earth, tracking down the wherabouts of Zeiram, a bio-mechanical robot controlled by a living unit in its forehead.But things do not run as smoothly as planned. Two locals named Kamiya and Teppei stumble into Iria's fort and mess things up. Zeiram finally comes into Iria's zone and starts to terrorize the civilians and it is up to Iria to save them and contain Zeiram.Zeiram sure is a different breed of Sci-Fi movie, and there are great looking enemy designs to boot and a memorable female lead that make these movies worth while.

Apart from the dorky telephone repairmen everything in this movie is done perfectly. The monster is the coolest ever, and the kickboxing female bounty hunter is a great hero.Visually stunning despite the sometimes immature tone.

A visually stunning film full of extravagant monsters and dazzling special effects. Director Keita Amemiya definitely has a flair for this kind of stylistic filmmaking and the film looks great, although the pacing could be tightened up a bit. What sets the film apart from so many others is the conviction and no-nonsense portrayal of the main character (Iria) by actress Yuko Moriyama. She offsets the otherwise campy tone of the film and lends it some credibility. Worth checking out if you're interested in a fun no-brainer sci-fi adventure stocked with girls, guns, gadgets, and monsters.
