Someone alert Debito...
Foreigners brutalized by this policewoman reported "loving every minute of it." Just another day in Tokyo, filming extras for the upcoming Tokyo Gore Police DVD.

I believe the proper phrase is "shit be goin' DOWN!"
So, when do we see some pics of you in makeup? HAW HAW HAW come on, you expected that one.
Altho...I don't get the point of actually cutting off the fingers to make the fingerprints, because if you have no fingers, you can't...you know, leave any prints behind to be traced to you! I guess we chalk that up to "why? BECAUSE THEY F'ING CAN, THAT'S WHY!!" huh?
I wish I could have participated, but I'm kinda easy to gross out, so...but then, maybe Slasher would have been able to catch REAL HONEST GAIJIN BARF on film,and he'd love it.

Looks like everyone had a great time. I'm forced to add "opportunities for extra work" to the (growing) pile of reasons Tokyo is better than Osaka

Thanks for the pics Matt!
I had an awesome time even if I was forced to wait for like 6 hours! I even had fun on the way home. I looked like a serial killer with my blood covered jeans and my white plastic bag with bloody clothes in it.
I still haven't got rid of all blood on my body!

When I heard "the maids" were planning to go home and hit the local game center without removing their makeup, I thought I'd be reading about you guys in the paper the next day...

Hehe we did actually hit the game center after the shooting was done. Of course we got some odd looks, but that was nothing. I had a 30 minute talk with Tim in Ueno's central exit. Both of us were covered in blood and scars. It was awesome. We were an island in a sea of people (no one would come within 10 feet).
Still the best part was when the actress (I don't believe I ever learned her name) came running up to us with a big "otsukaresama deshita." Just picture that image. An extremely cute girl runs up to two blood covered gaijin in a super busy station and thanks them for their hard work. Awesome.

......And not one, single, solitary Fight Club joke?
REALLY?

Yeah, I think you have to build a time machine and go back about 10 years for Fight Club references to have any relevance anymore. <------ A Fight Club joke.

Was this for the Japanese DVD? I just watched the North American DVD and the only extras were trailers.
Was bummed.

Japanese DVD. Pretty sure the American disc was already out when we filmed these.
