If you loved Death Shadows, try Gate of Flesh
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 Hideo Gosha. If that's the register that drew you to Death Shadows, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Gate of Flesh is
Tokyo Drifters without irony. A group of sex workers in occupied Japan struggle to survive, pooling their earnings to open a dance club. Director Gosha's eye for period detail and widescreen compositions elevates this tale of resilience.
