Welcome to a new edition of Pop Culture Imports for the month of October! Now granted, this month's column may not be quite as spooky themed as past October editions, but you could argue that it does give us a taste of different kinds of horror — from the erotic horrors of "Thirst" and "La Piscine," to the horrors of war in "All Quiet on the Western Front," to the horrors of having a chainsaw for a head. Don't say I don't give you variety.
Let's fire up those subtitles and get streaming.

One of the most anticipated anime series of the year is finally here. Acclaimed animation studio Mappa adapts Tatsuki Fujimoto‘s massively popular series, bringing its quirky blend of humor and ultra-violence to the small screen. If the premiere episode is any indicator, expect a wild and extremely gory road ahead for the inaugural season of Chainsaw Man.
Denji (Kikunosuke Toya) isn’t your average teen. Not only has his father’s debt left him in an impoverished state, where he’s selling his body parts to pay it off, but he’s also made a pact with an adorable chainsaw devil, Pochita (Shiori Izawa). When not selling off his bits and possessions to survive, Denji earns cash selling the corpses of other devils. When Denji gets betrayed and left for dead, he gets a second chance when he’s revived as “Chainsaw Man” – a man with a devil’s heart.

"If you don't take job seriously, you'll die." Mappa & Shueisha has revealed a third official trailer for an anime series titled Chainsaw Man, premiering in October in Japan and streaming on Crunchyroll in the US sometime later in 2022. This seems like the kind of anime that would come from the mind of Sam Raimi or straight out of the Evil Dead universe, but it's far from that. Following a betrayal, a young man named Denji left for the dead is reborn as a powerful devil-human hybrid after merging with his pet devil and is soon enlisted into an organization dedicated to hunting "devils". It's adapted from the manga by Tatsuki Fujimoto. Denji eventually joins the Public Safety Devil Hunters, a government agency focused on fighting against devils whenever they become a threat to the world. Featuring the voices of Kikunosuke Toya as Denji, Tomori Kusunoki as Makima, Shogo Sakata as Aki Hayakawa,...
