The exact same, Ryo and Akira were portrayed by a set of Idol twins. The movie was panned extremely hard and they were a big complaint to my understanding.

Him revealing to Miki's father by accident that he's a demon was probably the funniest scene in the movie.
That I-jizzed-in-my-pants-by-accident reaction of him was just priceless.

Well, somebody thought the Garbage Pail Kids looked totally fine and released it too. Bad judgement isn't just a Japanese thing.

Casshern was good. It was pretty weird though when it goes from mopey green screen movie to HOLY FUCK KARATE CHOPPING A ROBOT IN HALF in the span of sixty seconds.

It's almost miraculous that something this bad actually saw the light of day. Didn't the director catch cancer and die not too long after this movie flopped?

Not that anon, but the artist is Kitazaki Taku. It might be Sakuranbo Syndrome.

>>15422242
Back when the movie came out, a certain movie magazine ran an article about ‘filmmakers we want to die’ and [Devilman’s director] Hiroyuki Nasu was at the top of the list. At the time it was just a joke, but no one could laugh when he actually did die the following year.”

>>15422242
Yeah, it ended up being his last movie IIRC.

For what it's worth, I did think his movies based on the Be-bop High School manga were okay.

>this garbage got an American DVD release

>>15422559
Edgy Japanese stuff was in at the time.

>>15422242
The movie didn't flop if I recall correctly. It was universally panned by critics and public reception but it was a noted box office success.

This is a very, very silly thing to say.
>"HOW DID UWE BOLL MOVIES COME FROM THE SAME COUNTRY THAT BROUGHT US CITIZEN KANE?"

What's more worth bringing up is why did such an iconic beloved manga get such a throwaway treatment?

>>15423031
Same reason Uwe Boll's video game movies exist, I imagine. They thought the popularity of the source material would put butts in seats, regardless of the actual quality of the film.

>>15423146
That's not why Boll's films exist. They exist because due to tax laws in certain countries he films in all of his movies have been financial successes despite all being box office bombs.

>>15423031
>Why did such an iconic beloved manga get such a throwaway treatment?
Because of miscasting, wrong script and just general bad decisions by the director. If I recall, Devilman had some money behind it, so it's a project that went wrong. This is unlike Uwe Boll who set out to make shitty movies from the get go.

The movie was delayed for half a year due to fan complaints. and the staff apparently retooled it but I guess they didn't do enough.

It just wasn't meant to be.

>>15423031
>This is a very, very silly thing to say.
It isn't, you contrarian fuck. It means that obviously the country has done quality cinema, so it's not like they don't have movie industry. Fuck yourself.

I think that was a plus though. It really felt like my Japanese animes and it was something really unique.

>>15423269
How can anyone fail when other people succeed?!

That's what you were saying. It's a stupid argument akin to "We can put a man on the moon but we can't do X". Unless Kurosawa made this movie your argument has no logical reference point to complain.

A better argument is just how did a piece of shit like this get made as poorly as it was?
