Tokyo Zombie

We Will Protect The Future!

Directed by Sakichi Sato

Produced by Digital Frontier, IMJ Entertainment

2005104 min5.6 / 10

A darkly comedic, surreal zombie film that prioritizes absurdist humor and friendship over scares, treating an apocalyptic scenario with irreverent playfulness.

Two Japanese friends accidentally kill their boss and dump his remains in Black Fuji, a mountain/landfill hybrid. This leads to poor results when the chemicals of the landfill mix with the corpse (and many other corpses) to give rise to a zombie infestation in Tokyo.
