Cleopatra Entertainment has acquired North American rights to Japanese director Taichiro Natsume’s body horror The Beast Hand ahead of its international premiere at the Sitges Fantastic Film Festival. The low-budget picture stars Takahiro Fukuya as petty criminal Osamu who is possessed by a strangely deformed hand which is grafted onto his body by a mysterious doctor after he loses his left arm in a kidnapping job that does not go to plan. Fukaya is joined in the cast by Yota Kawase as his partner in crime, who is killed in the botched kidnapping, as well as Misa Wada as a woman from Osamu’s past who has undergone extensive plastic surgery to disguise her identity and takes the wounded man to her underground surgeon to fix his arm.
