If you loved The Demon, try Stakeout

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 Yoshitarō Nomura, and they sit in Crime / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Demon, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Stakeout is

Dusty Tokyo alley. Late summer. A single buzzing neon sign. Two cops on a clumsy, desperate surveillance job hope a killer will emerge to meet his old girlfriend. The banality of evil, as seen in a minor, early-career Nomura procedural.
