内容简介

Book Description

Edgy, intense and overwhelming, Shinya Tsukamoto's films are nightmarish visions of a world where man's greatest enemy is his own environment of cold concrete and twisted technology. His debut film, the cyberpunk masterpiece, Tetsuo, The Iron Man, saw him compared to David Lynch, David Cronenberg and Ridley Scott. The film paved the way for an entire generation of Japanese directors, and also deeply influenced Quentin Tarantino and the Wachowski Brothers, among others. Illustrated with hundreds of stills, behind-the-scenes pictures and rare photographs from Tsukamoto's private collection, this was written with his full cooperation.
