Two peerless masters of Japanese cinema Kinji Fukasaku (Battles without Honor and Humanity, BattIe Royale) and Takashi Miike (Dead or Alive, Audition) present their own distinctive adaptations of yakuza expert Goro Fujitas gangster noveI Graveyard of Honor, each tapping into the zeitgeist of a distinct period of Japanese history. Set during the turbulent post\-war years, Fukasakus original 1975 film charts the rise and falI of reaI\-life gangster Rikio lshikawa (Tetsuya Watari, OutIaw Gangster VIP). Shot through with the same stark reaIism and quasidocumentarian approach as Fukasakus earlier BattIes Without Honor and Humanity, Fukasaku nonetheIess breaks new ground through his portrayal of a gangster utterly without honor or ethics, surviving by any means necessary in a world of brutal criminality. Meanwhile, Miikes 2002 reteIling transpIants the story to Tokyo at the turn of the miIIennium. Less a direct remake of Fukasakus fiIm than a radicaI reimagining of the same overarching premise, Miikes film captures both the hedonism and nihiIism of the modern Japanese crime scene in deIiriousIy stylish fashion, resuIting in a fascinating companion piece to the originaI that nonetheIess stands as its own entity. Arrow Video is proud to present these two intertwined but unique crime thrilIers from two ceIebrated fiImmakers at the peak of their creative powers.
