This looks brilliant. double click the video clip and take the jump to youtube for some HD viewing.

Plot:
A middle-aged slacker living in a rundown, graffiti-ridden slum, his job involves being shocked by bolts of electricity that transform him into a stocky, stick-wielding giant several stories high. He is entrusted with defending Japan from a host of bizarre monsters, however while his predecessors were national heroes, he is a pariah among the citizens he protects, who bitterly complain about the noise and destruction of property he causes. He also has his own problems, an agent insistent on branding him with sponsor advertisements, an Alzheimer-afflicted grandfather who transforms into a giant in dirty underwear, and a family who is embarrassed by his often cowardly exploits. A wickedly deadpan spin on the giant Japanese superhero, BIG MAN JAPAN is an outrageous portrait of a pathetic but truly unique hero.
