Deep Dive

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Cultural

Made during Nikkatsu's commercial implosion, when studio mandates for color and 'international appeal' produced gloriously unhinged results.

Trivia

Not actually directed by Seijun Suzuki—the studio hoped Morinaga could replicate his chaotic energy on a rushed schedule.
