YAKUZA LAW

Teruo Ishii, Japan, 1969, Arrow Films, Cult

“Fans of exploitation and Yakuza movies of the ‘60s and ’70s will have a blast with this, while the cast makes it a stand out.” -- Asian Movie Pulse

Originally released as YAKUZA PUNISHMENT: LYNCH!, this gloriously sadistic panoramic narrative anthology of Japanese gangland “discipline” spans centuries, showcasing the rich history of gang violence. From the lethal swords of the Edo samurai to the guns and helicopters of the 20th century, Yakuza Law offers a ferocious, unyielding and star-studded cornucopia of joyously innovative inhumanity, commandeered by Tokyo’s single most notorious purveyor of cinematic viciousness, Teruo Ishii (HORRORS OF MALFORMED MEN; ORGIES OF EDO).
