This film was reportedly treated with extreme caution, with its title being changed from 'Flowervale Street' to 'The End of Oak Street' just before the information was officially released. The trailer gives off a similar vibe to J.J. Abrams' 2008 film 'Cloverfield.'
The director is David Robert Mitchell, who directed the horror film 'It Follows' (2014) and 'Under the Silver Lake,' which was promoted as a 'new kind of neo-noir suspense.' It is scheduled for simultaneous release in Japan and the US on August 14, 2026.

'Eva Eva Pe,' a track on the omnibus album 'Harehare Night,' was recorded late into the night. I finished my programmed parts early and fell asleep on the studio floor, but my snoring was recorded and used, and I was credited as IBIKI. (To be continued)
(Continued) The Kill Me Baby ending theme was also worked on late at night, and due to a mistake in the DAW, the two vocal tracks were out of sync, resulting in it being completed as a 'round.'
