If you loved The Eel, try Pigs and Battleships
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

What Pigs and Battleships is
You hustle scams near the U.S. naval base at Yokosuka with your girl. But rival gangs fight over the spoils. Imamura's early, frenetic style leaves one both exhausted and exhilarated.
