Yokota Is Bleeding

The more and more I watch of it, the more I'm encouraged to just let loose with it and have fun. Chris Nahon's Last Blood may not be the gritty actioner that Kitakubo directed years ago, but it at least looks like a good vamp-slashin' time.

And Jい-Hyun Jun fighting Koyuki in eigo, with Corey Yuen fight choreography just raises the squee meter for me.

The tale of a boss posessed by his designer wig?

Fans of recent Asian Cinema take note, it's very rare that Japan actually produces action films. They may have a killer Miike film, or Kaijyu, or even genre adventure from time to time, but Japan isn't really known for hard-bitten action these days. Not since the halcyon days of Kinji Fukasaku anyway. But if this latest vehicle for Tatsuya Fujiwara(Battle Royale,Death Note,etc) is any indication, we're hopefully in for a teeth-shattering good time with Chameleon.

It sports a tale in which a group of swindling toughs led by Fujiwara, are witnesses to a kidnapping, only to fall in further to where (ulp) it becomes PERSONAL! LOL



Looks cool. But is it me, or is Fujiwara trying to sport an Oh-Daesu knockoff wig here? なにこれ。
