CRAZY LIPS [HAKKYOUSURU KUCHIBIRU / 発狂する唇] (2000)
Satomi and her family are hounded by the press when her brother is accused of a vicious killing spree. Desperate to prove his innocence, Satomi goes to a psychic for help. The price the psychic asks is far more than she expected, and the answers they give her are nothing she could ever have imagined.

GORE FROM OUTER SPACE [CHI WO SŪ UCHŪ / 血を吸う宇宙] (2001)
Just before being lead to the electric chair for the murder of her daughter Misato, Satomi tells her story to a nun. It began with no one believing Satomi’s story of the kidnapping of her daughter. When the police are called in to investigate, Satomi’s husband tells them they have no daughter. From there we are led onto a wild ride with psychics, dirty politicians, headless corpses, strange Jello eating FBI agents and more.
