I wrote a long article on this very subject years ago for a now-defunct magazine called Japan: People Power Opinion. It was subsequently republished in Film International. I haven't got the references with me because I'm currently living out of a rucksack in Frankfurt. I think you should be able to track down the references online though.<div>Jasper<br><br>Midnight Eye: The Latest and Best in Japanese Cinema<br>www.midnighteye.com<br><br>More details about me on http://jaspersharp.com/<br><br><br><br><br>> Date: Tue, 20 Apr 2010 23:08:42 +0200<br>> From: j-c.mueller@web.de<br>> To: kinejapan@lists.acs.ohio-state.edu<br>> Subject: Movie versions of Edogawa Ranpo works<br>> <br>> Hello everyone,<br>> <br>> I am currently researching film adaptations of Edogawa Ranpo's works.<br>> The films I know so far:<br>> - Sôseiji (Gemini) by Tsukamoto Shin'ya<br>> - Horrors of malformed men by Ishii Teruo<br>> - Blind Beast by Masumura Yasuzô<br>> - Injû/The beast in the shadows by Barbet Schroeder<br>> - Caterpillar by Wakamatsu Kôji (although I haven't seen this one yet)<br>> <br>> Can anyone provide me with other titles?<br>> <br>> Apart from the films I have yet to find some relevant academic material <br>> (in either English, German or Japanese), dealing either with specific <br>> films in comparison to the source material or writings about Ranpo in <br>> general.<br>> Another interesting aspect would be the influence, some of his stories <br>> apparently had on other works, such as the recent K-20 by Satô Shimako <br>> or the anime series Meitantei Conan.<br>> So, if anyone knows about articles concerning this kind of relation, <br>> please share your information.<br>> <br>> Any help much appreciated.<br>> <br>> <br>> Thanks,<br>> Jan-Christoph Mueller<br></div>                                            <br /><hr />Get a new e-mail account with Hotmail - Free. <a href='http://clk.atdmt.com/UKM/go/197222280/direct/01/' target='_new'>Sign-up now.</a></body>
