After first premiering at the Cannes Film Festival, Exit 8 is now one of the highest-rated video game movies of all time.
Based on the viral indie horror video game of the same name, the movie follows a character known only as The Lost Man (Kazunari Ninomiya) who learns that his girlfriend is pregnant and panics at the idea of becoming a father. When he gets off the train, he finds himself trapped in an endlessly looping corridor. Much like the game, The Lost Man must proceed to Exit 8 by identifying the anomalies in each corridor... or be sent back to the very beginning. Genki Kawamura directs from a screenplay he co-wrote with Kentaro Hirase.
