Posted: under New York Asian Film Festival.

Sure Sammo Hung, Simon Yam and Huang Bo were amazing guests, but there are a bunch of guests in town right now for upcoming shows and you shouldn’t miss them.

DOMAN SEMAN – imagine A HARD DAY’S NIGHT only it’s about Aleister Crowley instead of the Beatles and you’ve got an idea of the occult intensity of Go Shibata’s new movie. Time Out New York writes, “Ladies and gentlemen, meet the 2010 fest’s candidate for MVP mind-melter. Damnations of modern society are rarely so full of free-form rage, nor this fantastically fucked up.”
