One of the most well-known names attached to gore and horror is that of Kiyotaka Tsurisaki. Fans are familiar with him and get intrigued by the mention of his work. Even for horror fans, who may not know him specifically, know of the titles that follow. They are sometimes seen at second markets and conventions, where, if you’re lucky, you can find secondhand, bad quality copies with no special features. However, all of that is about to change with the new Trilogy Of Death release coming from TetroVideo.
Kiyotaka Tsurisaki’s Trilogy of Death is getting the TetroVideo box set treatment. It has been announced that the company will be releasing two box sets of the Kiyotaka Tsurisaki Shockumentary Collection that includes Orozco – The Embalmer (2001), Junk Films (2007) and The Wasteland (2014). Both the Limited Edition and Golden Edition box sets will be available for pre-order on April 30th.
This Limited Edition Box Set has only 170 copies and the Golden Edition is limited to just 30 numbered copies:
Written and directed by Kiyotaka Tsurisaki—who has become known for photographing dead bodies—Orozco – The Embalmber is a shockumentary about the Colombian embalmer Froilan Orozco Duarte and his grim work in one of the poorest and most dangerous parts in Colombia: Bogotà.
Junk Films is a collection of short documentaries pondering the meaning of life and death by the use of shocking images. In Junk Films, Kiyotaka Tsurisaki focuses on the subject of war to offer a startling look at the aftermath of combat and on deaths many forms (disasters, starvation, tragic accidents) to highlight the fragility of human life.
The Wasteland is a look into the world around us and the aftermath of war, religion, and other evil facets that aid in the destruction of Earth. To set the mood for The Wasteland, Kiyotaka Tsurisaki teams up with the Japanese doom metal band, Corrupted.
So, what are you waiting for? Get these gory, shocking films on pre-order now!
