Based on the homonymous, multi awarded novel by Project Itoh (nickname for the now deceased Satoshi Ito), “Genocidal Organ” was one of the most anticipated anime movies of the latest years, with its release being delayed for a couple of years, after the initial production company, Manglobe, declared bankruptcy.
Genocidal Organ is available from Madman Entertainment
The story takes place in 2022, a few years after Sarajevo was destroyed by a homemade nuclear bomb set up by terrorists, in a series of events that led the wealthy nations to up their security and surveillance measures to the highest degree, while the poorer countries have fallen victims to a series of genocidal civil wars. These latter events, however, seems to have an instigator behind them, a mysterious American named John Paul, since after each time he appears as a representative of his company for a consultation with a government, the corresponding country...

After a terrorist bomb wipes out Sarajevo, one man puts his power over language to a sinister use in order to divide the world into one half of constant genocide and the other free of terrorism.
Genocidal Organ (Gyakusatsu Kikan) is the anime adaption of Japanese science fiction writer Project Itoh and is directed by Shûkô Murase. Set in the near future of 2020 in a post-terrorism world, first world countries have sacrificed civil rights in exchange for safety, security and surveillance whilst poorer nations have been plunged into genocide civil wars courtesy of a mysterious mastermind known as John Paul. To put an end to this, the American Government agencies send in high tech soldiers who have had all emotion blocked, led by Captain Clavis Shepard, to capture the man responsible for these events.

If you're a fan of director Chan Park-wook, you'll be happy to hear that he has set up another directing gig. The Korean director will develop an adaptation of the 2007 Japanese sci-fi novel Genocidal Organ. The book was written by Project Itoh, and the news comes from The Tracking Board. Here's a brief description of the story:
Set in a time when Sarajevo was obliterated by a homemade nuclear device, the story reflects a world inundated with genocide. An American man by the name of John Paul seems to be responsible for all of this and intelligence agent Clavis Shepherd treks across the wasteland of the world to find him and the eponymous "genocidal organ."
This sounds like the perfect film project for Chan-wook to take on. There are no details surrounding the adaptation, but Sean Daniel and his production company, The Sean Daniel Company, are set to produce it.
