Kyouki Sanmyaku: Jashin no Sanrei

A pilot film that's barely 5 minutes long, so it’s more of a trailer for a feature film that raised about 120 million yen in crowdfunding. It didn't turn out bad at all. There’s an atmosphere, and it made me excited to watch the feature film. It feels appropriately grim and dramatic in places, the filmmakers have put a lot of effort into the details, especially the climbing equipment, and even the background art looks very decent. I didn’t find out how important the promised Cthulhu would be for the story, but as a trailer for an upcoming film, it works just fine.
