From the mind of Wake Up the Death Treasure and Visual Bandits trilogy director Tac Miyamoto.

From the mind of Wake Up the Death Treasure and Visual Bandits trilogy director Tac Miyamoto come two legendary short tokusatsu epics! This duo of 8mm films - inspired by Tsuburaya Productions' TV series Ultra Q - weave tales of hardship and monsters from beyond, and helped pave the way for the director's most famous work. 'Forest of Heresy' - Miyamoto's final project as a high school student - tells the story of two hunters who, after a time-travel mishap, must escape the jaws of a hungry Tyrannosaurus rex. 'Legend of the Desert Illusion' follows four young members of the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force, who become stranded in the middle of a North-African desert within an armored reconnaissance vehicle. But the dunes around them are hiding much more than enemy forces, and they soon discover a horrifying entity lurking beneath the sand.
