Ichi The Killer: The Digitally Restored Director's Cut
Known as an auteur of the extreme, Miike took the ultra-violent gangster film to new heights with the visceral, bloody, and often hilarious ICHI THE KILLER, which has since endured as one of the most influential pieces of genre filmmaking of the last two decades.
Based on the manga ICHI THE KILLER by Hideo Yamamoto, the film follows Kakihara (Tadanobu Asano), a notoriously sadistic yakuza enforcer whose search for his boss' killer brings him into the orbit of a demented costumed assassin known as Ichi (Nao Ohmori).
