A Shin Toho Presentation

ABNORMAL INGYAKU aka 'Rewind'

Dismembered limbs were found together with the video.

Risky, huh.

They're like offerings?

Only in Japan.

"If you have business with the crime hunter, please leave a message after the signal".

I can't work on this.

You won't do it for me?

How unsightly...

Would you put those on me?

Thank you.

Brother, how long are you going to keep watching that stuff?

Can't you just watch it at work?

I'm borrowing it for now.

Then just make me yours.

Hey, let's hurry up and do it.

Come on... let's commit incest.

Be gentle.

It hurts!

So Mr. Student, is filming night scenes your hobby?

That's odd... or maybe not.

I take what's offered to me.

Hey, show me the one you just filmed. The one where a woman was forced into a car.

I got a "warning" for that one.

Are you saying you didn't shoot it?

It's broken.

Isn't the main unit working?

Is this when you were running with the camera in your hand?

Shall I investigate it for you?

I didn't ask for your help.

Have you heard what this is called?

You mean the video?

UVF.

"UVF"?

Yeah. I heard this from an American friend, it stands for 'Underground Video Film'.

They're the most extreme videos around. It's all illegal stuff, too.

For example: KKK lynchings...

Black men raping and killing white women, "lolita" rape, etc., etc.

They're usually sold out of back rooms.

Are you saying this is one of those UVFs?

A Japanese UVF, maybe.

You digging for clues, crime hunter?

Take me to where you work next time.

Why are you interested in it?

I've searched a lot of avenues, but not the sex industry yet.

Good morning.

Aren't you late?

- I'm counting on you. - Yes.

Take care.

- Who were they? - The girl is named Mari.

And the guy in the shade's is Cross. We call him "Mr. Spielberg".

Why do you ask?

It felt like I had seen him someplace before.

What's a "Spielberg"?

A famous director who makes nothing but smash hits overseas.

Then I wonder if I saw him in a magazine?

He has a hit called 'Muyuu'.

"Muyuu"?

A girl eats a bug by mistake.

You see, the bug steadily grows inside her body and wriggles about.

The girl keeps writhing in agony and ecstasy.

In the end, the bug comes out of her vagina.

But the bug can only live inside her body.

And then they both die out, almost like it's a lovers' double suicide.

But it's cool in a subtle way. It's Cross-san's masterpiece.

That sounds quite unsettling.

I think the video was probably taken with a good camera.

It evokes the feeling of wet ecstasy...

The girl who eats the bug looks a lot like Mari.

- The person from before? - Yeah.

- So I asked her about it. - And?

She laughed, and said no.

This is Cross's office. At the moment, I've gone to Omega.

If you have business with me, please leave a message after the signal.

"Omega"?

I'm calling because I wanted to interview you for Video Image about your latest release.

Hey, brother, you watch nothing but these kinds of videos everyday.

It's really weird.

I know you study this kind of stuff at school and all,

so I understand why you watch it so enthusiastically, but still...

I have a feeling that she was killed.

This person? Come on, it's all fake!

Did you fall in love with her?

But a dead person is good for nothing.

Hello?

The results are in...

There was type B blood on the bracelet you brought in. Probably, a woman's.

You can even tell the gender?

Actually, a woman's bloody fingernail was sent to the investigator.

Remember that video? It matches perfectly.

Is the boy here?

Are you talking about Akira?

He hasn't come yet... but who are you?

Please remember me.

"Crime hunter"... What is this?

I'm investigating a lot of things.

There's nothing here.

That's why I have business with the boy.

How do you know him?

I'm a customer.

My lighter's not fancy, but here.

I have to service customers.

I thought I had seen you somewhere before...

'Muyuu'. Wasn't it you in that one?

People often tell me that... It causes me trouble.

That girl is young, right?

I'm middle-aged.

Women can change, you know.

Tell the boy to contact me.

- You're Cross, right? - What of it?

I'm from Video Image, but I couldn't get a confirmation, so I made an enquiry.

I'm sorry, but I'm not giving any interviews right now.

I heard that you used to work at a TV station, and I wanted to talk to you about that too.

TV, huh?

You're not a reporter, are you? Hurry up and go home.

- Will you strip? - Eh?

Get naked for me.

Don't make me repeat myself!

Another roughie, like Muyuu? How predictable.

You said you were going to make a sequel. What's wrong?

You don't like the starring actress?

I made that film for you.

Then are you saying you can't make anymore films using me?

Hello?

Who is this? Who are you!

- Why didn't you contact me? - What are you talking about?

Didn't you hear? I asked the person at the shop to tell you.

She was probably busy.

There was type B blood on the bracelet I found near the building where I met you.

Blood? So?

I saw that video of that woman being attacked.

- Who filmed it? - Didn't you see them?

I couldn't see anything in that dark place.

The camera light was on! What did you see? Answer me!

- The light was off when I was there. - Wait...

If you have business with the crime hunter, leave a message after the signal.

You like to ambush, don't you? If you're going to follow me, then...

- You drive a car, right? - Yeah.

There's this car that attacked me...

By the way, I figured out why you didn't see the person doing the filming...

Because you're the one who filmed it.

- Wanna be in a video? - Huh?

Cross is looking for a model.

He said, "Hey, what about your younger sister?"

A video?

You'll like it. It's for Cross.

Brother, aren't you the one who'll enjoy it?

If you're interested, then why not have an interview?

If I'm interested, eh? If I'm interested, if I'm interested...

Try dancing first. I'll film it.

I'll show what I shoot to Cross.

What's with that camera?

It was there at work...

- I borrowed it without permission. - Oh, my!

I'll return it soon, so hurry up and do it.

I filmed my younger sister, who Cross asked about putting in a video.

She can act, can't she?

- Who does this belong to? - Eh?

The video camera.

A customer forgot it.

They forgot... this?

No!

No!

How about closing the office here, and granting me one final wish?

Are you saying you're going to the netherworld?

Weren't you that type of person to begin with?

It's different from when I was at the TV station.

That was real... everything was.

Yeah... that was war.

You tried too hard when you were directing that news show.

- Stop talking about that. - Why?

Back then you told me it was okay to do it dishonestly.

You said to do whatever it took!

I forgot.

What's the story behind these photos?

What are you talking about?

Where have you been until now?

I was watching videos.

She's calling me...

This woman is calling me.

She's calling out for help...

But she was killed.

She's dead.

She's surely dead.

Please wait. Cross!

Where are you going?

Please wait. Hold on. Cross!

Please open it! Cross! Wait up!

I need to talk to you!

Wait! Where are you going?

Do you want to know?

- Where? - Omega.

- Where is it located? - Shall I take you there?

You're investigating the videos, aren't you?

I'll tell you...

This is Studio Omega.

We make nude films... and we make UVF, too.

'Omega'. Good name, isn't it?

It's from a poem that Cross likes.

'O', omega...

The Purple revision of that person's eyes.

I'll make you feel good...

Who's there?

Akira...

Did you do it with this?

- What are you talking about? - About Tomoe.

Would you say it by the product number?

Stop!

Did you save me?

Didn't you say that the woman in the video was calling out for help?

Video?

The woman who was raped... it was me.

I didn't want to look, but I couldn't help it.

Two years ago...

The wounds were horrible, so I had as much plastic surgery done as possible.

I changed my job from a news-caster-in-training to a crime hunter.

But it's ironic. My present job brought me face-to-face with those who took the video.

I can't believe that you're the woman from back then.

That was a great experience.

My customized camera was a clue...

But you modified yourself, with customized flesh.

You're my greatest production, the Customized Sequel.

You'll be my newest star.

You're insane!

- Are you any different? - What do you mean?

I'm cold-blooded...

Those with cold blood kill...

Those with warm blood are killed.

That's just how it is.

You survived too, so you have cold blood.

But still, I've got to have you go back inside here...

Go back...

Go back to your old face.

I can't die a second time.
