Character

Reality and fiction clash in demented ways in this serial killer thriller by award-winning advertisement director Akira Nagai. Reuniting with Nagai after his maniacally fun performance in Teiichi: Battle of Supreme High, Japanese cinema’s “It Boy”, Masaki Suda, reveals his dark side as Keigo, a talented illustrator who is way too nice to write a villain in his comics. After witnessing the death of a family at the hands of a terrifying murderer, Keigo draws the murderer into his comic 34 and ends up creating a runaway hit. Co-starring Shun Oguri as a police detective chasing the serial killer, Character is a hair-raising chiller packed with unpredictable twists.
