Trailer: Our Exclusive NSFW Clip from SHE’S JUST A SHADOW Will Get Under Your Skin
Arriving in select theaters and on VOD July 19th, 2019 via Breaking Glass Pictures, Adam Sherman’s She’s Just a Shadow has echos of Oldboy with the twists and turns of a procedural horror movie. There’s also a surreal, almost psychedelic undercurrent beneath everything that has you questioning everything you see.
“This film kind of came out of madness,” said Sherman. “Inspired by ‘what ifs’ with characters from my childhood like Snidley Whiplash, Nel Fenwick, and Dudley Do-Rightmaybe not showing up in time, my interests in forensic science, and real-life situations blown way out of proportion, the story just fell into place against the beautiful backdrop of Tokyo.”
Check out out our exclusive, NSFW clip from She’s Just a Shadow at the top of the article, followed by the film’s synopsis and trailer below.
Synopsis:
A beautiful Japanese madam. A deranged, drug-addled Tokyo gangster and his crew. A sadistic serial killer on the loose. The intersection of these stories and the interior worlds of these characters plays out against a dreamlike backdrop of ultra-violence and orgiastic sex as everyone tries futilely to rewrite their futures and cheat death. A dreamlike yet modern take on the gangster genre, She’s Just a Shadow is the action-packed story of a matriarchal crime family engaged in a vicious gang war, while a deranged killer is leaving his victims on railroad tracks all over Tokyo. The only thing more dangerous than the killer is the vicious love triangle within the family itself.
She’s Just a Shadow stars Tao Okamoto, Haruka Abe, and Kihiro.
