"Gonin"
1995
Directed by Takashi Ishii

A nightclub owner, deeply in debt to the mob, hatches a plan to rob the very men he owes the money to and pay them back with their own tainted cash. He recruits a colorful band of misfits to help him out, but they don't cover their tracks very well. Soon, they are targeted for payback by a vicious band of Yakuza and assassins. "Gonin comes across as a latter-day update of early Sergio Leone thematics (many of which were originally cribbed from Kurosawa, truth be told) and the swirling, garish pop-cinematography of Seventies-era Dario Argento. It's a wild, deliciously unnerving ride, full of excessive everything, from the shell casings on down" (Marc Savlov, Austin Chronicle). Japanese with English subtitles.  109 minutes.
