Venom: The Last Dance & Birth of Kitaro Collaborate in New Video
posted on by Ken Iikura-Gross
When it comes to collaborations, some make sense like Godzilla and King Kong. Sometimes they are odd, albeit connected by a theme, such as this year's Dune and Gundam Seed Freedom collaboration. As Japan enters the spooky season, two vastly different movies join forces for a video screening in theaters: the R15+-rated edition of The Birth of Kitaro: The Mystery of GeGeGe and Venom: The Last Dance.
The official X (formerly Twitter) accounts for the two movies announced the collaboration on Wednesday and teased a shortened version of the video. Junichi Suwabe (Japanese voice of Venom's Eddie Brock) and Hidenobu Kikuchi (Kitarō's Shigeru Mizuki) narrate the video called “The Evilest Partner Autumn Festival 2024."
