When Chris and I first saw Happiness of the Katakuris several years ago, we weren&#8217;t exactly impressed.  Sometimes it just takes a second round.  Lately I find it delightfully campy like the Rocky Horror Picture Show with its random wacky balls-out awkwardly endearing song and dance numbers (even enka karaoke), or harkening Beetlejuice when it employs grim prosthetics and surreal stop-animation, or even Sound of Music on acid.  Anything now, it seems, is amazingly tame ...]]></description>

 Director: Takashi Miike
Starring: Kaori Moimoi, Hideaki Ito, Yoshino Kimura
Genre: Indie, Bad Ass Chicks, Japan, Action
This film has been covered ad-nauseum on other websites, so I&#8217;ll make this relatively short. For those of you not in the know, Sukiyaki Western Django is Takashi Miike&#8217;s Japanese western. Now, each and every film student knows about the interplay between the American Western and the Japanese Samurai, but a full on Japanese western is pretty unusual. While the mash-up has been tested in the realm of videogames (ie: Rising Zan and Samurai Western), ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[HE SAID
Ah, Takashi Miike. I think I’ve covered him enough in previous reviews to forgo the usual introduction. I mean, his popularity has grown to the point where I’ve even heard little children mentioning his name in excited tones at the local video store (I would imagine he would have it no other way). So it’s safe to say you probably know who he is, and if not, shame on you.
But even if you know Miike, and know how out of left field his oddest of odd projects can be, ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So I was poking around the net and noticed AnimEigo updated their release calendar through May of next year. Slated for release are everything from Shogun Assassin III (a new dub created specifically by AnimEigo) to Takashi Miike&#8217;s Big Bang Love, Juvenile A (aka: 4.6 Billion years of Love). You can check out the PDF with the cover art for the new releases here.
A brief rundown of the films, and release dates follows:
9/11/2007 &#8211; Shogun Assassin III
10/2007 &#8211; Shinobi no Mono

		<description><![CDATA[They say nihilism loses its appeal after a certain age. Maybe it has to do with a change in lifestyle that comes with lasting relationships, fulfilling work, and true freedom of choice. Teenagers often are drawn toward nihilistic works because of the absence of these elements in their lives. Whether that’s truly the case, I don’t know. However, I have noticed a personal drifting away from such works in recent years (I’ve even stopped reading Palahniuk). I do feel that had I seen this film at an earlier age, under ...]]></description>

Sukiyaki Western Django . Most of you probably are familiar with Takashi Miike&#8217;s latest, a gonzo Japanese western, and have probably seen your fair share of trailers. But now there&#8217;s a trailer in quicktime! Check it out here.

Bubble (aka: Bubble Fiction: Boom or Bust) &#8211; No, no the Steven Soderbergh one. This one&#8217;s about a time traveling washing machine. The target date? Japan&#8217;s economic-bubble days. I think. Check out the trailer here.
Spider-Man 3 &#8211; Spider Man&#8217;s back and spidery-er than ever. Yah, you already know all there is to know about this one. Check out the final trailer here and the international trailer (en espanol) here.

This latest batch could be perceived as a nice drink after drought. Note that since Johnny To&#8217;s Exiled is playing at this year&#8217;s SFIAAFF I&#8217;ll try to have a review up this weekend. Read on for the reviews.

		<description><![CDATA[If you dig Takashi Miike, or the show Masters of Horror you probably heard something regarding his “Banned” episode, Imprint; an hour of horror so foul that Showtime refused to air it in the United States. And you also probably heard a few reasons for the denial: the numerous shots of dead fetuses, the torture sequence, Billy Drago’s acting skills, etc. Well, we&#8217;ve now seen it, and while it may not be a textbook Video Nasty, it certainly is something extreme.
In Takashi Miike’s Imprint, Drago plays Christopher, an American on ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The revenge genre has seen a noticeable rise in popularity in the past few years, fueled by hits such as Kill Bill and Chan Wook Park’s Vengeance trilogy. While those films have received quite a bit of critical acclaim (with style often being confused for substance, and academics making quite a many misplaced proclamations of genre reinvention), they fail to deal with the true nature of violence, vengeance, and the corruptive quality even the most juvenile transgression has on a victim’s psyche. Cronenberg’s A History of Violence tried something like ...]]></description>
