About this product

When his police detective best friend is killed, down-at-heel private eye and part-time blues singer BJ (Yusaku Matsuda, The Game Trilogy) gets the blame. He must start his own investigation to clear his name, but what he uncovers is a tangled web involving crooked cops, drug-dealing gangsters, the city's underground gay and biker scenes, and even his own past. A loose remake of Robert Altman's The Long Goodbye that also draws from Visconti's Death in Venice, this was Matsuda's break with his action hero image. Samurai movie veteran Eiichi Kudo (The Fort of Death) relishes his chance at directing a neo-noir that captures urban Japan at the height of 1980s decadence.

Underworld Chronicles: Three Yakuza Fables By Takashi Miike - Limited All-Region UHD   - 4K Blu-Ray [4K Ultra HD Blu-ray]

This is a UK Import with Region Free 4K UHD and Region B Blu-ray. A multi-regional capable player will be required to play Blu-ray. Fudoh 4k BOTH 4k UHD All Region / Blu-Ray Region B Agitator / Deadly Outlaw Rekka Blu-Ray Region B ONLY The late nineties and early 00s saw director Takashi Miike make the transition from his origins in direct-to-video 'V-cinema' to one of the most critically and commercially successful Japanese directors on the international stage. A multi-talented director who would come to work in almost every established genre, it was his often outrageous takes on the gangster genre that first brought him attention outside of Japan. Three of his most notable Yakuza films from this period are collected here, in a landmark new box set. FUDOH THE NEW GENERATION Riki Fudoh (Shosuke Tanihara) is a high school student juggling academic work with a secret life operating as an underworld boss. As the leader of a group of larger than life, school-age assassins, Fudoh is waging a campaign of violence against the entire criminal underworld, as part of a revenge plot against his own father (Toru Minegishi), a high-ranking Yakuza in his own right who was forced to murder Fudoh's brother. Originally planned for as a direct-to-video V-cinema title, Fudoh was granted a theatrical after producers viewed the film, leading to it becoming a festival favourite around the world, and establishing Miike on the world stage as one of film's great provocateurs and a key figure in 'extreme' cinema. AGITATOR A yakuza (played by Miike himself in a cameo) is murdered after violently assaulting a hostess on rival turf, providing the catalyst for a gang war between a number of factions seeking a redistribution of power. In this densely-layered gangland drama, the backroom manoeuvring of the senior figures in the yakuza, overseen by Mr. Kaito (Rapacious Jailbreaker), are juxtapos
