This is an unusual work from the transitional period of “Toei’s realistic line”, depicting the life of corporate racketeers, a variant of modern yakuza. The protagonist is modeled on Ogawa Kaoru, who screenwriter Kasahara Kazuo became interested in after learning about her existence while researching “Battles Without Honor and Humanity” (non-fiction series). Kasahara closely interviewed Ogawa and wrote the script. The “economic yakuza,” who had only appeared in supporting episodes until then, are now fully featured as the main theme and protagonist, and the film is said to have been a precursor to later Hiroshima jingi: Hitojichi dakkai sakusen (1976) and Nippon no Don: Yabohen (1977), as well as the “financial yakuza films” and “economic yakuza films” that were mass-produced on original videoRead More »

Centuries (or is it days?) later, gun-toting, Armani-clad super policemen — Hong Kong’s Saviours — are devastated by a cloaked assassin. Kinetic medieval fantasy; overstructured, outgunned urban nightmare. And that’s only the first ten minutes! A highly entertaining, eye-popping genre bender in every way.Read More »
