Legendary auteur Shinya Tsukamoto is ditching body horror for a haunting Vietnam War drama. His latest film, *“Mr. Nelson, Did You Kill People?”*, trades surrealism for raw psychological warfare.

- **No explosions:** Just pure, claustrophobic moral reckoning.
- **The focus:** A veteran’s internal decay.
- **The vibe:** Visceral, uncomfortable, and deeply existential.

Tsukamoto is redefining Japanese cinema by confronting the brutal reality of foreign conflict.
