The Machine Girl (product link) Action/Adventure / Girls With Guns Great japanese splatter film. It reminds me a lot of the '70s pinky violence movies from Toei.
Girl Boss Revenge (product link) Crime / Action/Adventure This is the fourth entry in Toei's "Sukeban" series and the last directed by Norifumi Suzuki. If you like movies made by Suzuki, you should also watch this one.
Female Demon Ohyaku (product link) Crime / Erotica Shot in excellent black & white photography with an an fantastic Junko Miyazono. A real "pink film" classic.
Battle Royale (product link) Horror / Thriller Battle Royale is a fascinating film with a great Takeshi Kitano. The young actors and actresses do a great job: especially Masanobu Ando and Chiaki Kuriyama.
Pistol Opera (product link) Girls With Guns / Crime "Pistol Opera" is a stylish thriller. The plot involves a female assassin who is ranked the third best and wants to move up to number 1.
Dark Habits (product link) Drama / Comedy "Dark Habits" is Spanish director Pedro Almodóvar's depiction of a convent where nothing is quite as it initially seems. In his blasphemous comedy, Cecilia Roth (star of ALL ABOUT MY MOTHER) has a small role as one of the mother superior's former lovers.
Filmed in Madrid, Spain. Director Pedro Almodóvar appears briefly as a bus passenger.
Blind Woman's Curse (product link) Thriller / Action/Adventure A mix of the Yakuza and horror genres with a dose of ‘pinky violence’.
Teruo Ishii is directing the a cool Meiko Kaji, swordplay, supernatural grudges, yakuza, mystery, terror, and intrigue. It may not be the best work of either Kaji or Ishii but it is a very great movie.
Manji (product link) Drama / Erotica Manji is Masumura's twenty-eighth film. Its packed running time offers a scabrous catalogue of infatuation, lesbianism, adultery, duplicity, phantom pregnancies, blackmail, drugs, blood oaths, ménages à trois, suicide pacts and death, but this is filmed so exquisitely that the film resists any classification at all.
I recommend it to all who likes the films of Masumura and who likes Asian Cinema.
Blind Beast (product link) Drama / Horror "Blind Beast" has fantastic performances and a chilling atmosphere. I recommend "Blind Beast" to everyone (and especielly to everyone who likes Asian Cinema).
