I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
There was a wealth of fast-moving gritty exploitation films made during the 60's and 70's in Japan that no-one bothered to translate into English.This is one of them. Tetsuya Watari is a big game hunter who returns to Japan after a hunting trip in Alaska to find his younger sister has killed herself after being raped by a biker gang.It's revenge time. This Nikkatsu action movie is satisfyingly violent and has a great theme tune. I saw it on early evening Japanese tv,my wife translated.
