Watch This Trailer ‘Before We Vanish’

The trailer has just been released for Before We Vanish from acclaimed horror director Kiyoshi Kurosawa (Cure, Pulse). It has been said that the film “reinvents the alien movie as a unique and profoundly human tale of love and mystery.” In the film, “three aliens travel to Earth on a reconnaissance mission in preparation for a mass invasion. Having taken possession of human bodies, the visitors rob the hosts of their essence – good, evil, property, family, belonging – leaving only hollow shells, which are all but unrecognizable to their loved ones. Equally hilarious, thrilling, and profound, Before We Vanish reminds audiences of the continued strength of one of Japanese cinema’s most unique auteurs – and the value of the human spirit.” Masami Nagasawa (Godzilla: Final Wars), Ryuhei Matsuda (The Raid 2), Mahiro Takasugi, Yuri Tsunematsu, and Hiroki Hasegawa (Shin Godzilla) star. Before We Vanish opens in cinemas on February 2, 2018.
