Episode 10: Cutting Room Horrors

Before we pick up the story in Shingo's destroyed hideout, we've found new information we think is vital to the story... In this weeks episode, we are lucky enough to speak to Isamu, the director from Japan who was supposed to direct the Tokusatsu kids show "Rogue Fighter X". He was able to dig up 35 glorious seconds of pieced together trailer created by the cult leaders Jimmy and Imi Muzaki. This tiny bit of history also has the movie song added as well. Here is link to the snippet of the trailer on youtube: https://youtu.be/LZS-WHy4Q3I?si=YtEZIeglTHQVJKem [https://youtu.be/LZS-WHy4Q3I?si=YtEZIeglTHQVJKem]

Weird sensations when standing on these stairs? We would say learn more about this religion by going to www.heavenlypath.org [http://www.heavenlypath.org] but unfortunately between the time of this interview and releasing the podcast, the website has gone missing...
