Trailer for the Japanese Suspense Thriller CLOUD — GeekTyrant
The trailer has been released for the upcoming Japanese suspense thriller Cloud , a film depicting "collective madness" born from a chain of hatred. The title Cloud is a reference to the digital space known as the cloud, and this is a horror story about how hatred spreads online. The movie is described as a 'stylish, subversive thriller' from suspense-maverick Kiyoshi Kurosawa. The story follows Yoshii, 'an ambitious, yet directionless, young factory worker from Tokyo who side hustles in the murky realm of black market reselling, cheating buyers and sellers alike. 'After swindling his way into loads of cash, he becomes slowly disconnected to humanity, moving out of the city, shunning his girlfriend, and hiring a devoted assistant. But after a series of mysterious, sinister incidents occur, he begins to suspect his former victims could be plotting the ultimate revenge. 'A master of carefully simmering tension to a bloody crescendo, Kurosawa delivers a searing portrait of digital greed and vengeance.' The film stars Masaki Suda as Ryôsuke Yoshii, Kotone Furukawa, Daikan Okudaira, Okayama Amane, Yoshiyoshi Arakawa, and Masataka Kubota. I've heard this is a great film worth checking out.

A sound platform for success - meet the masterminds behind the aural magic of Black Myth: Wukong and more
BEIJING, July 31, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- A report from Sound can sometimes inspire a greater emotional reaction in people than visual stimuli, especially in movies and games. As the creator of the original soundtracks of many hit games and movies, including the groundbreaking BlackMyth: Wukong, 8082 Audio in Beijing granted exclusive access to China Daily online show Cultural Frontline, sharing creative stories of sound and music. From the sound effects of the Monkey King armor, to the game's sweeping and emotive Celestial Symphony, their magic extends much further than the synthesizer. Apart from the games, the studio's artists also revealed the creative processes behind movie theme songs and even the sound effects used by modern electric vehicles. As the studio's musical director, Zhai Jinyan told China Daily that a key source of their creative inspiration was Chinese culture, as many pieces of music and sound effects they design originate from the country's musical landscape and its traditional instruments. "Our culture is our true root and soul, passed down through generations. Therefore, once we rediscover it, and draw nourishment from it, such nourishment can never be replaced by mere imagination." Zhai added. View original content to download multimedia: SOURCE
