Higanjima/ 彼岸島 25 & Live-action film

Been waiting very long for it to release. Finally, volume 25 is out on 6 November 2008 in Japan. This series is recommended by people from CY forum that says it's nice and so i went to read and indeed, it's really nice with horror and fear. ^^ I couldn't sleep well after reading some volumes. This series is kind of like Gantz type of genre like horror, nudity, dangerous, despair, many killings. Recommended to buy for those above 18 years old.

Koji Matsumoto's horror manga "Higanjima" is officially going to be adapted as a live-action film. The story follows a boy named Akira Miyamoto whose brother disappeared on an island known as Higanjima. When Akira and his friends head to the island in search of the brother, they find that it is full of vampires and other monsters.

19-year-old Hideo Ishiguro, who had his first lead role in the drama series Elite Yankee Saburo, will be playing Akira Miyamoto.

Korean director Kim Tae-gyun [Volcano High] will be leading the project with Tetsuya Oishi [Death Note films] writing the script. Higanjima is expected to hit theaters in fall 2009.
