As you can see with the exciting new thread title change
this week's prize has been picked by Almar! And it is....
CUTIE HONEY
"AN EXPLOSION OF CAMP PLEASURES AND CANDY-COATED, COMIC-BOOK GIDDINESS." – VARIETY Cinematic guilty pleasures of the bubblegum-flavoured variety don't come any more fun or satisfying than the superhero fantasy flick, CUTIE HONEY, in which the irresistible heroine of the popular Japanese manga and anime series is brought to vivid life in an effervescent eruption of exquisite eye candy.
Directed with enthusiastic verve by legendary anime director Hideaki Anno (Neon Genesis Evangelion) and starring model-turned-actress Eriko Sato (Funuke Show Some Love, You Losers!) and Mikako Ichikawa (Memories Of Matsuko), CUTIE HONEY is a shamelessly entertaining antidote to the recent spate of depressingly serious superhero flicks that have been gracing out screens lately (we're looking at you, Dark Knight and Watchmen!).
Described as a "high energy Japanese adventure comedy" by the New York Times and as "damn good fun" by Asian Cinema Drifter, CUTIE HONEY's cheeky combination of "Charlie's Angels" attitude, "Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers" fantasy and "Austin Powers"-style comedy adds up to a fun and wacked out spectacle that is impossible to resist.
CUTIE HONEY (cert. tbc) will be released on DVD (£15.99) by MVM on 11th May 2009. Special Features include: Making of Cutie Honey; stills gallery; original trailers.
Now THAT's a great DVD!
Good luck
