The trailer for a sexy new Japanese vampire film entitled Blood has made its way throughout the cyber vampire world today. Starring former J-pop icon Aya Sugimoto, who apparently caused quite the scandal overseas in 2003 when she divorced her husband of 11 years on the grounds that they didn’t have enough sex. In 2004 she starred in Takashi Ishii‘s remake of the BDSM classic, Flower & Snake, cementing her status as Japan’s foremost sexual goddess. Now, in Blood, Suimoto plays a seductive vampiress. According to the Nippon Cinema site:

…Detective Hoshino (Kanji Tsuda) visits the mansion of Miyako Rozmberk (Sugimoto) in order to investigate the murder of her former maid. She blames the murder on a man named Ukyo Kuronuma (Jun Kaname), whom Hoshino catches in the act of biting a young girl’s neck as she begs for her life. Ukyo was once known as Okita, a swordsman from Edo period who was turned into a vampire by Miyako. Hoshino soon finds himself turned into a vampire as well, and ends up in a battle with Ukyo for the right to spend eternity with the irresistible Miyako.
