The ever-prolific Takashi Miike, the director behind the likes of “Audition”, the “Dead or Alive” trilogy and “Blade of the Immortal”, returns with this intergalactic epic in which a team of space explorers find themselves pitched against a horde of oversized anthropomorphic cockroaches.
In the mid-21st century, humankind has been forced to look to colonizing other planets as a means of combating overcrowding on Earth – their first stop, Mars. With a population of cockroaches having been introduced on Mars some 500 years prior to help prepare the way for human colonization, a manned mission sets out to the red planet with the aim of clearing away the bugs. Upon arrival, however, they discover that the roaches have evolved to huge, vicious creatures capable of wielding weapons.
Based on the popular Manga series of the same name, “Terra Formars” is an action-packed space adventure brought to life by one of Japan's most celebrated contemporary filmmakers.
