Graveyard Of Honor (197?)

Yakuza film from the early 70s, released by Toei. Apparently directed by the same guy who did Battle Royale.

Lots of graphic sex, violence, hookers and what not.

Set in post-war Japan, Rikio is a member of he Kawada gang, but his rebelious insubordination leads him onto other things... such as hookers & drugs.

This film is basically a fictional documentation of the downfall of a Yakuza thug. Could I say it's about anything else? Not really.

Watchable...

My rating: 5.1/10
