The Blood-Drenched, Gore-Filled Japanese Horror ‘The Sound Of Silence’ Coming To Blu-ray

From British-born filmmaker Guy comes the blood-drenched, gore-filled Japanese horror The Sound of Silence “In the relentless heat of the grueling summer, temperatures soar to blistering levels as cicadas emerge to sing their ear-shattering song. Months of continued exposure is enough to make anyone start to feel a little off.
