Shinya Tsukamoto’s original Tetsuo: The Ironman is most certainly one of my formative cinematic experiences. I remember watching it for the first time one night with a friend in his parents’ basement the summer after my freshman year at college. His dad had to get out of bed and yell at us to stop shouting. The film was just blowing us away, and we were very loud about how awesome and freaky it was. Tsukamoto had won a fan for life in me, and, indeed, I have very much liked every single piece of work he’s produced that I’ve had the pleasure to see. The third Tetsuo movie is no exception. It’s very much in the same style as the previous two films. Half-Japanese, half-white Eric Bossick plays the title character here. He’s a mild-mannered office worker, until, that is, his eight-year old son is viciously run down by a car. When Bossick gets upset, he becomes a metallic, murderous monster. The story is pretty silly (Bossick has “android DNA” because his dad made it with a robot version of his mom), but it’s all about the images, the violence, and the Lovecraftian horror
