According to The Hollywood Reporter (via Fango), The Weinstein Company has picked up the North American rights to Nightmare Detective, the latest offering by Japanese maverick director Shinya Tsukamoto (Tetsuo).
The Weinsteins will handle the movie for Britain, Australia and New Zealand as well; what their release plans are, or whether they plan to sit on the film and remake it in English as some have speculated, have yet to be announced.
Scheduled to open in Japan Jan. 13, Nightmare Detective stars Ryuhei Matsuda in the title role, attempting to get to the bottom of a pair of mysterious suicides with the help of a man who can enter the dreams of others.Labels: horror movies, Japanese Horror, Nightmare Detective
