If you loved Blind Woman's Curse, try Female Yakuza Tale

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Teruo Ishii, and they both carry the raw mood tag, and they sit in Action / Crime / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Blind Woman's Curse, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Female Yakuza Tale is

Snowy docks. A plucked shamisen. One woman's scream. Ocho, caught in a smuggling ring's sadistic web, finds herself betrayed, brutalized. Revenge ignites a furious war against lowlife yakuza and rival female gangs alike. Ishii's lurid, violent pinku eiga remains singular.
