So. Japan Shock are well established as the European home to some of the more obscure and extreme Japanese Cinema. They've gone a long time without a new release, but now they're back. Firstly is the 1974 "Zero Woman" film : an early entry into the series that went on for a couple of decades or more.

I think it's one of the best this year, and i hope to review it soon.

So, if you enjoy the 70's feel of films like "Lady Snowblood" or "Lone Wolf and Cub", i think this could be another worthwhile title to hunt down. You should find this title turning up at the major USA import sites like HKFlix and DVDAsian. Also, there are some good european sellers like Absurd or Chainsaw.

Then on 22nd November it's the infamous "Yakuzas Law". Dates have been shifted twice already, so fingers crossed this time. See the trailers at the Japan Shock site.
