Adapting the Edogawa Rampo short story The Twins, Shinya Tsukamoto`s (TETSUO, TOKYO FIST) modernist Meiji horror represents the director`s first foray into period films and fleshes out Rampo`s original tale of savage sibling rivalry considerably. Yukio (Masahiro Motoki) is living a charmed life: he is a respected young doctor with a successful practice and a beautiful wife. His only problem is that his wife is suffering from amnesia, and her past is unknown. Things begin to fall apart, however, when both his parents die suddenly, killed by a mysterious stranger with Yukio`s face. Only when Yukio confronts this stranger will the mystery of his identity, and his wife`s past, be revealed. 1999 Venice Film Festival - Official Selection GEMINI Blu-ray Cat No. TWFBD054 Region: B Number of Discs: 1 RRP: £19.99 (Approximately $25.08 US) Release Date: November 2, 2020 Running Time: 84 Minutes Rating: 15 Audio: Japanese Subtitles: English Bonus Features New HD transfer Audio commentary by Tom Mes, author of Iron Man: The Cinema of Shinya Tsukamoto Making of GEMINI featurette directed by Takashi Miike Behind the Scenes Make-up demonstration featurette Venice Film Festival featurette Original Trailer First 1000 units come with slipcase featuring new artwork illustrated by Ian McEwan · Preorder: arrowfilms.com/product-detail/gemini-blu-ray · Preorder: amazon.co.uk/ Gemini [Blu-ray]

The Third Window Films brand was born in 2005 when its film-loving founders grew bored of the stream of worn-out shock horror vehicles from the Far East. Third Window Films works hard to bring you the wonderful world beyond long-haired ghost films and mindless Hollywood action copies, sourcing the finest works in new Far Eastern cinema. We strive to represent a rich variety of film genres, be they dramas, comedies, political satires, action or anything else in between. Expect everything from the unknown and cult to the off-beat and even the occasional mainstream masterpiece... or expect nothing but quality Asian cinema! Let Third Window Films be your window to the East!
