Legendary Japanese director Takashi Miike revealed a teaser trailer for ‘Connect’ Series
Connect, the new TV series directed by Takashi Miike is coming. Based on the webtoon of the same name, Connect depicts the mysterious story of a man who has been deprived of a part of his body by organ hunters and becomes “connected” with a person who has received an organ transplant.
Disney has revealed a teaser trailer for a new horror thriller series called Connect, made for Disney+ Korea. Premiering at the 2022 Busan Film Festival before it’s streaming later this year. I can’t even believe that Disney made this, and hired the legendary Japanese filmmaker Takashi Miike (!!) to direct, but hell yes why not. In this series, adapted from the Manga, a man is kidnapped and one of his eyes is removed by a gang of organ hunters. The eye is then transplanted into the body of a serial killer… The unwilling donor now has terrible visions as he witnesses terrifying attacks on the residents of Seoul. The series stars Jung Hae-in, Go Kyung-pyo, and Kim Hye-jun. This has some gnarly footage in it for a teaser that is barely 60 seconds long. Does this supernatural eye help people heal, too? How does the story play out and who is trying to stop the bad guy(s)? Will this eye live on somehow? So many questions…
