What you need to know about this film: it is part 5 of the "Outlaw: Gangster VIP" series. And it is available now from Arrow Video.Arrow Video is arguably the greatest thing to happen to cult film since... ever. There are many boutique companies out there, but it seems that they either focus on horror (which is great) or foreign classics (which is great). This leaves a huge amount of material untouched -- what about all the genre films that are not classics or horror? Not that I am a huge fan of Japanese films, but I was still surprised to learn that there was a studio (Nikkatsu) that was pumping out these great gangster films, and they seem to be completely forgotten. This whole series -- except maybe the first film -- has been forgotten and IMDb has barely even heard of it. And yet, it's brilliant and fun.
