Cinemas around here have started showing old films and I have rediscovered the joy of going to the movies, whether it's Some Like It Hot or Suicide Club.
Distribution rights for obscure cinema are complex.
Apparently Prime video has "suicide club" according to where to watch. But not in my country lol.
reminds me of a few old-ish horror movies I've seen, particularly from Japanese cinema, where the concept of a social contagion has been explored a few times. eg: Infection https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infection_(2004_film) or Suicide Circle https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suicide_Club_(film) to name a few.
The name is rather bizarrely the inverse of the excellent Japanese director Sion Sono(1), popular and world famous (or at least instantly found via an internet search) since his 2001 hit, Suicide Circle(2).
The car looks great - does anyone know anything further about the naming?
