That is a crushing disappointment. Hopefully it's not due to lack of decent elements.

Re: Japanese cult cinema thread
I take it these are the Japanese answer to Germany's SCHULMÄCHEN REPORTs? Or would they be "real" documentaries more along the lines of the "Mondo" flicks?

Welcome Mecha.
It's not coming out this year at least. I'm keeping an eye on Toei releases, so if they do release it some day, I'll post the news in this thread.

Thanks ^^
I check quite regularly this thread and your other ones.
The movie is on vod at Rakuten's (like the sequel of Shokin Kasegi by Eiichi Kudo) but I don't know if we can watch it abroad.

"Sneak Preview of 2012
Coming in 2012, a set of stellar samurai films, plus the long-awaited Blu-ray release of the complete Shogun Assassin series!
If classic samurai films are your cup of green tea, you'll love Eiichi Kudo's Samurai Revolution Trilogy, consisting of 13 Assassins (1963, aka The Thirteen Assassins -- recently remade by Takashi Miike), The Great Killing (1964, aka The Great Duel) and Eleven Samurai (1967).
And if stellar swordplay is your bowl of rice, then you'll be pleased to know that the complete 5-film Shogun Assassin series, dubbed into English, will be released in a Blu-ray collector's set."

Yes, yes it does indeed! I'm looking forward to compliment the framed TORN PRIESTESS poster over my bed with a R2J on my shelf. It'll also be nice to finally see Makiguchi's Oden Takahashi film. Somehow I doubt Toei will be able to beat the stunning PAL release of OXEN SPLIT, but I'm eagerly awaiting screenshot comparisons anyway.

Re: Japanese cult cinema thread
Chusei Sone's Â!! Hana no ôendan films coming to R2J on 2012/02/02. Available separately and in a box set.
嗚呼!! 花の応援団 (Â!! Hana no ôendan) (1976)
嗚呼!! 花の応援団 役者やのォー (Â!! Hana no ôendan: Yakusha yanô) (1976)
嗚呼!! 花の応援団 男涙の親衛隊 (Â!! Hana no ôendan: Otoko namida no shin'eitai) (1977)
The films are based on manga by Dôkuman, and were produced by Nikkatsu. Nikkatsu also had some non-pink productions in the 1970's... some say it was partly so that they could prevent their best directors like Sone (who clearly had talent much beyond pink films) leaving the studio. Screenwriter Yôzô Tanaka is quite well known, too... he went from Nikkatsu pink to Toei Yusaku Matsuda films and eventually to Shinji Somai classics in the 80's... his work is a bit uneven, though. Nikkatsu star Junko Miyashita appears in all three films.

The films are based on manga by Dôkuman, and were produced by Nikkatsu. Nikkatsu also had some non-pink productions in the 1970's... some say it was partly so that they could prevent their best directors like Sone (who clearly had talent much beyond pink films) leaving the studio. Screenwriter Yôzô Tanaka is quite well known, too... he went from Nikkatsu pink to Toei Yusaku Matsuda films and eventually to Shinji Somai classics in the 80's... his work is a bit uneven, though. Nikkatsu star Junko Miyashita appears in all three films.

Re: Japanese cult cinema thread
Does the Burai (無頼) series has been edited on dvd (one of them is Gangster VIP : Burai Yori Daikanbu) ?
And does someone know if there is more than 4 movies in this one ?

Re: Japanese cult cinema thread
Kurotogaki now offers subtitled boots of SUKEBAN 6 and 7. I bought the Toei R2 DVDs a year or so ago and am very excited to finally seem them translated. 7, in particular, I really enjoy. Hopefully they will move on to fansubbing the TERRIFYING GIRLS' HIGH SCHOOL series next.

Re: Japanese cult cinema thread
Sweet Baby Jesus! Thank you, HungFist--I mean "Nikkatsu." Is it safe to say that other online shops will offer these? Does Amazon Japan ship to the US? I will MOST CERTAINLY buy these.
