Overview

Teppei and Kamiya, two average joes working in the electronic services industry, stumble upon the intergalactic bounty-hunter Ilia, and her partner, the artificial intelligence named Bob. Both men are accidentally transported to the Zone, a virtual reality in which Bob has trapped Ilia's latest prey, a biological weapon named Zeiram. The Earth natives must both survive the experience and help Ilia capture Zeiram before the Zone disappears around them.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A gleefully chaotic sci-fi action romp that pairs scrappy earthling underdogs with a badass intergalactic bounty hunter in a virtual reality death trap. Practical effects and practical jokes collide as the stakes climb.
