A disgruntled researcher injects his former employers' meal with a serum that turns their sushi into flesh-eating monsters.

The presence of Noboru Iguchi as director is enough to make it a must-see or avoid - by the standards of Japanese splatter it's a entertaining 90 mins of unrestrained insanity

Rated: 4

If splattery Japanese weirdness is what you're into, there's no denying that this flick delivers the goods, and then some.

For all its absurdity Dead Sushi is truly a film made by a bunch of like-minded Japanese Lost Boys who are all just trying to have fun and make each other laugh, and it shows!

Rated: 3.5/5

Flying killer sushi and a bad guy who turns into a giant tuna-man. Delivers exactly that.

No hay nada, repito, NADA, destacable en esta película: Malas interpretaciones, mal dirección, fatal edición, efectos especiales de de mierda (tanto en CGI como físicos), guión absolutamente desastroso y unas ideas que podría superar un niño de 5 años en cuestión de madurez ... ... y sin embargo no podrás parar de reír viéndola. No iré tan lejos como decir el típico "es tan mala, que es buena", pero si puedo asegurar que con un par de amigos y en una situación idónea esta película es hilarante.

The Japenese version of Attack of the Killer Tomatoes. I think thats all that is really needed to be said. If you like those kind of movies that are so bad that are still bad, then this is the one for you. I wont lie though, I laughed quite a few times.
