Word began to trickle out early this year about the film adaptation of the suspense comedy Akumu no Elevator, which is based on the first installment of author Hanta Kinoshita's popular "Akumu series". It marks the the directorial debut of actor Keisuke Horibe and stars Masaaki Uchino, Aimi Satsukawa, Fuyuki Moto and Takumi Saitoh. Supporting roles go to Koichi Ohori, Sei Ashina and Manami Honjo.
Three men and a women trapped for hours together in an elevator, each desperate to leave, for their own very different reasons. Inside the confined space first tempers flare as their frustration turns to anger and distrust. Later as boredom and fatigue take hold, they each start to recount their darkly funny tales, of how they came to be stuck there in the first place. 24FPS
It would seem that the trailer has been out for a couple weeks now but better late than never. You can find it after the break. The film releases in October in Japan.


Hmmm, this does look interesting.
