[Update: first teaser trailer added after the jump]

The first official poster and a handful of production photos associated with the live-action film adaptation of Kyoko Okazaki's manga Helter Skelter have been made available online. The film, directed by award-winning photographer Mika Ninagawa, will star beautiful actress Erika Sawajiri in the role of Ririko. Among casts members will also be veteran actors Susumu Terajima (Zatoichi the last, Ichi the Killer) and Kaori Momoi (Memoires of a Geisha, Sukiyaki Western Django). 

Helter Skelter is scheduled for Japanese release on July 14th of this year. I must say, it's looking very promising!
