If you loved Bohachi Bushido: Code of the Forgotten Eight, try Yakuza Law
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 sit in Action territory. If that's the register that drew you to Bohachi Bushido: Code of the Forgotten Eight, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Yakuza Law is
You pledge allegiance to a yakuza clan across Japan's eras. But honor fades with each new boss. Violence escalates. Ishii’s nihilistic eye finds the lurid and grotesque in Japan's most brutal traditions. The film lingers in exploitation territory.
