Genre icon Jô Shishido stars in this tense and violent yakuza yarn from genre stalwart and Seijun Suzuki s former assistant, Yasuharu Hasebe (Female Prisoner Scorpion: #701 s Grudge Song).
Shishido stars as Kuroda, a mob hitman who turns on his employers after being forced to execute his lover. Joining forces with his similarly wronged brothers, hot-headed Eiji (Tatsuya Fuji, In the Realm of the Senses) and aspiring boxer Saburô (Jirô Okazaki, Stray Cat Rock: Sex Hunter), the trio escalate their mob retaliation to all-out turf war where no one will stop until one faction emerges victorious.
Strikingly violent for the period and gorgeously photographed in monochrome like genre siblings Branded to Kill and A Colt is My Passport (Shishido s other films from 1967), Massacre Gun is a bold iteration on the genre featuring some stunning compositions and the assured direction of Hasebe.

Great film in the great quality
I’m not going to bother reviewing the movie because I figure if you’re thinking of buying this you know what the movie is…but in case you don’t, I will only say that if you have seen sixties Godard films, like Alphaville, that may be the closest kind of experience to this. Arrow´s release is beautiful. It’s amazing that relatively unknown films like this can get such beautiful treatment. . Fans of this film will definitely NOT be disappointed.
