Takashi Miike’s Black Society Trilogy Blu-ray Movie

Overview

Takashi Miike’s Black Society Trilogy (1995-1999)

After several years spent working almost exclusively in the direct-to-video world of ''V-cinema'' in Japan, Takashi Miike announced himself as a world-class filmmaking talent with this trio of thematically-connected, character-centric crime stories about violence, the underworld of Japanese society, families both real and surrogate, and the possibly hopeless task of finding one's place in the world.
