In this strange, twisted world we live in, we’re ready to do just about anything to fix our financial situation. Even hunting for a serial killer. In Shinzô Katayama‘s second feature film Missing, a down-on-his-luck widow goes on a strange mission to capture a notorious serial killer to dig him and his daughter out of debt. Nothing could possibly go wrong. Right?
Read the full synopsis for the film below:
Depressed and in debt following the death of his wife, Santoshi (Jiro Sato) tells his young daughter he has found a way out. Pointing to a reward note, he vows to find the infamous serial killer “No Name” (Hiroya Shimizu) and cash in, claiming to have seen the man in the flesh a few days earlier. Kaeda (Aoi Ito) cannot take her aloof father seriously. But when he goes missing without a trace, she starts to fear the worst—and must begin looking for him.
Missing has its US premiere at Fantastic Fest. Dark Star and Bloody Disgusting plan a US theatrical release for the film on November 4, 2022. They’ll then do an On Demand release on November 18, 2022, and the Blu-Ray release for the film on December 6, 2022.
