Shôwa kayô daizenshû (2003)

Shôwa kayô daizenshû: Directed by Tetsuo Shinohara. With Ryûhei Matsuda, Kayoko Kishimoto, Hiroyuki Ikeuchi, Yôichirô Saitô. One of a gang of karaoke loving middle aged women is murdered by a young man. Her friends track him down and kill him. His friends track them down and kill the killer ….. and it escalates!

“Love it or hate it, this movie will definitely have an impact. It starts with a gratuitous murder that triggers a downward spiral of revenge between two rival factions: middle-aged women known as u0026quot;The Midorisu0026quot; and a group of young slackers.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWith each gruesome murder comes a slightly more powerful retaliation, which leads to the spectacular finale.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eCharacters are deep and well thought out. Most of them being completely insane. Yoshio Harada (Gessai the Assassinsu0026#39; Sensei from Azumi) is hilarious as a petty arms dealer with a delusional fixation on what is the greatest plague in human history and a dubious definition of a u0026quot;noble causeu0026quot;.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eYou will either laugh yourself silly or be utterly disturbed. You shouldnu0026#39;t miss it either way.”
