The ever-prolific Takashi Miike, the director behind the likes of Audition, the Dead or Alive trilogy and Blade of the Immortal, returns with this intergalactic epic in which a team of space explorers find themselves pitched against a horde of oversized anthropomorphic cockroaches.
In the mid-21st century, humankind has been forced to look to colonising other planets as a means of combating overcrowding on Earth – their first stop, Mars. With a population of cockroaches having been introduced on Mars some 500 years prior to help prepare the way for human colonization, a manned mission sets out to the red planet with the aim of clearing away the bugs. Upon arrival, however, they discover that the roaches have evolved to huge, vicious creatures capable of wielding weapons.
Based on the popular Manga series of the same name, Terra Formars is an action-packed space adventure brought to life by one of Japan's most celebrated contemporary filmmakers.

Underrated Miike
Terra Formars isn't for everyone, especially if you're expecting the Takashi Miike of about 1997-2002. What this is, is crazy and silly sci-fi fun. The CGI isn't the best, of course, as this isn't a big-budget blockbuster. Instead, it's much more B-movie fun. There are cockaroaches and human-bug hybrids, and it works as a kind of Starship Troopers / Power Rangers cross over. A really enjoyable film, just don't use your brain too much. As always, Arrow have done an excellent job with the film. I'd love for them to even further into Miike's back catalogue.
