Tetsuo II: Body Hammer
Shinya Tsukamoto directed Tetsuo II: Body Hammer, a 1992 Japanese science fiction/horror film. It is a higher-budget remake of the same director's 1989 film Tetsuo: The Iron Man, with similar themes and ideas (a Japanese salaryman, played by cult actor Tomorowo Taguchi, finds his body transforming into a weapon through sheer rage after his son is kidnapped by a gang of violent thugs.) Although it did not earn the same level of critical acclaim as its predecessor, it did win the Critic's Award at the 3rd Yubari International Fantastic Film Festival in February 1992.
