If you loved The Scissors Massacre, try Ichi the Killer: Episode Zero
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
Theysit in Drama / Horror / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Scissors Massacre, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Ichi the Killer: Episode Zero is
Tokyo night. A dripping faucet. Tortured dreams plague a young man. A lifetime of bullying, abuse, and degradation coalesce into a singular purpose. He will become vengeance incarnate. Takashi Miike fans can dial back to the source.
