Show Notes
Chris is joined by Bones, Dan, and Kron from the 5 Day Rentals podcast to discuss the 2002 Japanese film TOYD, a made-for-satellite TV movie about a murderous toy. Notably, this film was previously unavailable anywhere and lacks entries on IMDB or Letterboxd. The group talks about the plot, character dynamics, and the cultural context of the film. They also delve into various trivia and controversies surrounding toys in a game called FacTOYD. The episode includes insights into the archival challenges and niche appeal of such obscure films.
