NOVEMBER 6, 2026 · NEW YORK · FILM WATCH
A futuristic Manhattan becomes the setting for a deadly corporate system in Karōshi, the action thriller highlighted in HYPEBEAST’s latest film post. Its title draws on the Japanese term for death from overwork, turning workplace pressure into the premise for a violent screen world.
INSIDE THE CORPORATE MACHINE
The story follows an outsider uncovering the system beneath that world. Teo Yoo stars alongside Isabel May, Cynthia Erivo and Giancarlo Esposito. Chad Stahelski, known for directing John Wick, is a producer on the film.
For KOLAK, the premise connects with an interest in constructed environments: spaces whose surfaces communicate power, ambition and control. Here, the corporate setting becomes part of the threat itself.
