On the schedule for this evening.

Oh it's up already? I've lost track. 

I might check that out tonight too then. Thanks for the heads up.

[Greg]

I'm pretty sure it drops the 27th. But I thought the same about the 25th and the 23rd. One day I'll be right.

We don’t even talk to set carpenters.

[Greg]

I could talk about the caterers for days. Shout out to Tony with 4 Star who couldn't stand to see people on set go hungry.

Dear Special Guest:

His critically acclaimed documentary explores the deep connections between food, culture, family, and identity.

Food Roots is a story about more than what we eat. It is a reflection on where we come from, the traditions that shape us, and the shared experiences that bring us together around the table. The screening will begin with brief remarks from Billy Dec, followed by a special panel discussion.

A FILM BY DAVE BOYLE

STARRING MOEKA HOSHI, KENTO KAKU, KURUMI INAGAKI, MUTSUO YOSHIOKA, BOKUZO MASANA, TAE KIMURA

Theatrical Release Date: Fall 2026

*** 2026 SXSW Film Festival ***

“an enchanting nightmare…rich with paranormal possibilities” - [u]Mashable.com[/u]

“Hoshi’s deeply present, engaged performance is one of the main reasons Never After Dark works so well, but it’s also an undeniably well-made piece of horror filmmaking in terms of craft.” - [u]RogerEbert.com[/u]

“honoring the horrific traditions of skin-crawling Japanese genre classics. It's warmhearted, obscure, and thoroughly creepy all at once, which makes for a rivetingly free-flowing watch.” -[u]Daily Dead[/u]

Upcoming Press Screening:

Los Angeles 

 

NEVER AFTER DARK follows Airi (Hoshi), a wandering medium who spends her life guiding restless spirits out of the world of the living. Summoned to an isolated country house, she comes face to face with a grotesque apparition with powers that defy Airi’s experience. As she digs deeper into the house’s past, a secret comes to light — and Airi finds herself hunted by a far more unpredictable force. For the first time, her greatest adversary is not the supernatural, but the living.

 

Directed and written by Dave Boyle, NEVER AFTER DARK is produced by Signal 181, the Tokyo-based production company founded by actor-producer Kento Kaku and director Dave Boyle following the global success of their Netflix series HOUSE OF NINJAS, which debuted in 2024 and immediately climbed to #1 on Netflix’s Global Top Ten. The company develops distinctive film and television projects that bridge Japan and the United States—a mission reflected in its name, which combines the countries’ calling codes (+1 and 81). CEO Kosuke Tsutsumi also produces alongside Kaku and Boyle, with Aram Tertzakian of XYZ Films, Todd Brown, and United Lounge Tokyo’s Toshiyuki Suzuki serving as executive producers.
