Featured review
A Japanese new approach on offbeat Werewolf!!
Who expects to see a usual werewolf transformation, you must skip this Japanese picture, the star fight Sonny Shiba portraits a reporter Akira Inugami at Tokyo modern days whom in every lunar cycle he turns in an offbeat werewolf, he got an inner power and becomes a sort of unbeatable guy without any visible metamorphosis at all, he investigates several bloody murders of a rock band members that including a pretty girl, also the Yakusa entering in the game sponsored by a powerful politician.
An action horror picture mixing martial arts, extremely gory and surreal concerning a ghost tiger, actually Akira is a last survivor of ancient bloodline of werewolves, the plot delves into a Tokyo underground circuit of nightclubs, drug dealers and prostitution under the command of Yakusa, a sexploitation flick strongly inspired on Japanese Manga, colorful and sexy girls, where the beast-hero Sonny Shiba burst without mercy, fine entertainment from seventies.
Thanks for reading.
