In the last episode, we looked at Hana-Bi and Kikujiro, besides being features from our most recently selected director, are two of the best Japanese films of the past 30 years. Picking up the baton, in this second part of Directors Uncut, Rob, along with Clinton (Twitter), dipped into the filmography of the better-known Beat with 1989’s Violent Cop and 2003’s Zatoichi – complete with peroxide blonde hair.
The episode is rounded out with a discussion on Netflix’s Korean Monster series, Sweet Home, Scandanavian Childhood terror, the Innocents, the recent Shudder exclusive, Saloum, and much, more. As ever, we are all over the cinematic and literal map.
