BLOGTOBER 10/27/2022: MATANGO

Ishiro Honda's relentlessly grim, genre-bending thriller about mutant mushroom people issued me a challenge that I may have failed: Once the dangerously addictive mushrooms and their hybrid-human progeny arrived in the film, I rapidly lost my ability to think about anything else going on in the story. Much of MATANGO is a grimy, downbeat survival horror narrative about a group of people stranded on a desert island, a circumstance that causes their humanity to fall away, as does the malignant fungus that is their only source of food…and like, I don't mean to cast aspersions on the compelling script or any of the fine performances in this film, but I very much relate to the compulsive desires of the hungry cast of characters: More mushrooms! MORE MUSHROOM PEOPLE!

I'd put a spoiler alert on this review (if you're reading it on Letterboxd then I actually did), but when a movie starts out with someone reflecting on their experience from a mental institution, you already know it's going to get dark. Sensitive university professor Kenji Murai (Akira Kubo) reflects on the events that left him in such a place, beginning with an ill-fated outing on a yacht belonging to arrogant celebrity Masafumi Kasai (Yoshio Tsuchiya). The passengers are a mix of spoiled intellectuals and entertainers who stand in stark contrast to the sneering, fed-up crew of the ship, and the obvious tensions between them all boil over quickly when a storm strands them on a remote island where food is scarce. They take up residence in a beached spy ship that holds evidence of an experimental fungus which, it soon becomes clear, is slowly taking over the island, causing madness and mutation in anyone who dares to take a bite. This gang would have had no trouble turning on each other in any case, but the mushroom madness certainly doesn't help.

Make no mistake, there's a lot going on in MATANGO subtextually: The hapless survivors are ultimately the victims of international espionage efforts that spawned the killer fungus, which identifies war as the ultimate culprit, much as it is in Ishiro Honda's masterpiece GODZILLA. In fact, it's worth mentioning that the film was nearly banned in its homeland due to the resemblance of some of the mid-mutation makeup to the disfiguring injuries of atomic bomb survivors; even if this was coincidental, it's pretty affecting. There is also a lot to say about class tensions in MATANGO, as hostilities mount between the yacht's passengers, who get to think and play for a living, and the sailors who enable their pleasure cruise. Honda has further noted that the 1963 movie reflected on the rise of a drug-fueled counterculture, using the all-consuming mushrooms as a general-purpose metaphor for the ravages of addiction. But all that said…you gotta love the mushrooms. They're so great.

Production designer Shigekagi Ikuno (also responsible for the beautiful LAKE OF DRACULA) does a handy job of entrapping the viewer in the claustrophobic, mold-caked world of MATANGO, and he's at his best in the psychedelic mushroom forest at the heart of the island. Conceptual artist Shigeru Komatsuzaki completes the picture with his fabulous mutant designs, perhaps a little too well, as once I laid eyes on them shambling across the set, they took up all of my attention. They're just so cool-looking, plus who wouldn't want to live in their funky little forest with the fairy lights all around it? Actually, the one thing that's missing from MATANGO is an explanation of the disadvantages of turning into a mushroom. When we eventually return to the mental institution where the sole survivor resides, he ruminates on whether he shouldn't have just given in and stayed on the island. (He also makes some salient remarks about his own moral failings that may be reflective of Ishiro Honda's dim view of human nature, but I won't spoil them here) Everybody there seemed to be having a good time; sure, they were high on shrooms, but maybe permanently tripping and leaving humanity behind isn't such a bad thing. The vampy Kumi Mizuno looks like she really enjoyed her psychotropic snacks, which were made from rice pastry for the production by a local shop who added fun flavors just because they liked the actress so much. The attractive colors and the look on her face when she ate them really made me want one. Hell, I want one right now!

Matango (マタンゴ Matango) is a 1963 tokusatsu horror film directed by Ishiro Honda and written by Takeshi Kimura from a story by Shinichi Hoshi and Masami Fukushima, with special effects by Eiji Tsuburaya. Produced by Toho, it is a loose adaptation of the 1907 short story "The Voice in the Night" by William Hope Hodgson. It stars Akira Kubo, Kumi Mizuno, Hiroshi Koizumi, Kenji Sahara, Hiroshi Tachikawa, Yoshio Tsuchiya, and Miki Yashiro. The film was released to Japanese theaters by Toho on August 11, 1963. American International Television released an English-dubbed version of the film to American television syndication in 1965 under the title Attack of the Mushroom People.

Matango follows a group of seven wealthy friends from Tokyo whose yacht is caught in a storm and wrecked on a seemingly uninhabited island in the Ogasawara chain. After examining another derelict ship on the island, they learn that its crewmembers were investigating the effects of nuclear testing on the island and gradually vanished after consuming the bizarre native mushrooms growing on the island which they called "Matango." With food and resources becoming more and more scarce, the survivors turn against each other and one-by-one fall under the influence of the Matango, which they find is slowly mutating those who eat it into grotesque fungal creatures.

[DLD] Stage play “Vanitas no Carte“ stream English subtitle

Hello everyone! As I mentioned in my previous post, I’ll try to upload other subtitles I’ve been working on, so here comes another one.

Looking forward to the reprise of the stage, I present you the English subtitle for the stage “Vanitas no Carte“. About the story:

Scorned by others of his kind for being born under a blue moon, the vampire Vanitas grew afraid and desolate. According to legend, he created a cursed grimoire known as the "Book of Vanitas," and it is said he would one day use it to bring retribution upon all vampires of the crimson moon. In 19th century Paris, Noé Archiviste is searching for the fabled Book of Vanitas. Whilst traveling aboard an airship, he is saved from a vampire attack by an eccentric doctor who calls himself Vanitas and carries the very tome he seeks. Ironically, the self-proclaimed vampire specialist is a mere human who inherited both his name and the book from his master, the same Vanitas of legend.

Cast member includes:

Ueda Keisuke as Vanitas 

Kikuchi Shuuji Takamoto Gaku as Noé

Noujou Ami as Jeanne

Sawada Miki as Dominique

Tamua Souta as Luca

Maeda Musashi as Luca 

Yashiro Takuya as Louis

And others

Right before the first performance, Kikuchi Shuuji was tested positive for covid, and most performances were cancelled, excpet one, in which Takamoto Gaku took Kikuchi’s role.

Here are some rules to get the subtitle and some requests for after you receive it.

Please read until the end!

* Warning! Since it was a single streaming and not a DVD release, the Eng subtitle matches the file I have, so there may be small delays with the files you have. You’ll have to match the subtitle with the video  yourselves!

* I’m sharing only the subtitle, not the video file!

* For those who want the subtitle, please send me an ask or a message.

* Be polite when asking for the sub and have patience to get it. I’m not in front of the laptop 24h/7.

* Be sure you download the sub as fast as possible because I’m changing the link from time to time!

Please respect and follow the rules because I made them with a reason.
