Wild Japan fest 4th-6th Feb
Cult! Wild Japan (the follow-up to last years Cult! festival) is a nationwide festival of classic Japanese cult films which will be touring UK cinemas this spring. The festival launches at the Filmhouse in Edinburgh on the weekend of Friday 4th-6th February 2005.
6 ultra-rare 35mm have been imported direct from Tokyo for the event, which also includes 6 UK cinema premieres. This is a one-off opportunity to catch the films that influenced Tarantino, Miike and Woo. The Wild Japan films are : Onibaba - Classic Japanese cult horror. Angry, excessive and hynoptic. Street Mobster - Hyper-kinetic gangster classic from the director of 'Battle Royale'. Woman With Red Hair - Gritty 'pink film' erotic masterpiece. Wild Midnight Movie Double Bill - Shogun Assassin - The ultimate Japanese cult samurai movie. An uncut, rare screening on 35mm. School Of The Holy Beast - One of the most beautiful nunsploitation films ever made. An insane, demented masterpiece. Sword Of Doom - Dark, thrilling, bleak samurai masterpiece with stunning fight sequences. Female Prisoner 701 - The biggest influence on Tarantino's 'Kill Bill'. A lean, taut, brutal exploitation epic. Pale Flower - Exquisite, existential gangster film masterpiece. A lost classic. Further information can be found at : www.wildjapan.co.uk One chance to taste the madness!.... http://www.wildjapan.co.uk/edinburgh.php |
