If you loved Electric Dragon 80000V, try Burst City

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 Gakuryu Ishii, and they both carry the raw, unhinged mood tags, and they sit in Action / Music / Science Fiction territory. If that's the register that drew you to Electric Dragon 80000V, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Burst City is

You ride into 2030 Tokyo on a chopper with three punk bands whose gear hums on diesel. Amps double as Molotovs, and the crowd’s already lobbing bricks at the corporate skyline when the riot squad’s drones circle overhead. Ishii’s camera flattens the city into a comic book where every crash asks who really owns the future.
