It's so disturbingly unusual and out of my normal wheelhouse that I'm always a little tense when watching it.

It's pretty awesome! But then, I'm always a sucker for classic Japanese movies.<br /><br />A little bit of Roger Corman and Vincent Price (an actor getting his revenge on the people who ruined his father) a little John Waters (the actor getting revenge is a female impersonator in Kabuki theater ... and looks a little bit like the Japanese counterpart of Divine) and a lot of Japanese Kabuki culture.<br /><br />I love Japanese cinema and I love it that the List has so many Japanese films I never heard of! I have about 150 films left to go on the List, but only two Japanese films - Tokyo Olympiad and Gohatto (Taboo).Tonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17921029597363212734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3166297507174717122.post-66149048738534255422012-07-03T21:59:22.971-05:002012-07-03T21:59:22.971-05:00It's interesting.
