Three unpopular brothers, Masaichi, Masaru and Masao, are struggling to be popular among the girls. Luckily enough, they finally get a chance to have a co-ed picnic with some pretty young ladies.
Uhm.. wow. After this film, I just don't know what to say. Funky Forest is a movie that pretty much defies everything you think you know about movies. I have no idea how to categorize it either. I can honestly say it's the weirdest film I've ever seen, and that's saying a lot. Great actor Tadanobu Asano (Last Life in the Universe, Ichi the Killer) somehow agreed to be a part of this infinitely weird film, maybe he knew that never in his career would he ever star in a film stranger than this one.
Some scenes truly raises the insanity-bar beyond max capacity, and then some. A few scenes have made their way to YouTube where many viewers sighs and wonder what the heck happened to the once great and proud land of the rising sun. Others, like me, are glad that crazy stuff like this exists because if it weren't for Japan, nothing would ever come close to being as nuts as this.
Funky Forest could be called a gem in the world of freaky Japanese cinema, a savior for the viewers who thought they've seen it all. It could also be called nightmare fuel that makes you want to take a long, cold shower.
