Ichi the Killer is one of those genre defying films that first glance looks to be a straight up Yakuza gangster film but quickly descends into old fashion horror. Directed by the great Takashi Miike, Ichi the Killer followed in the footsteps of his previous films by pushing the boundaries of good taste to ever higher heights — that says a lot given the director’s previous films like the squirm-inducing Audition!
