Review 4K Movie

For many years, Takashi Miike’s breakthrough film the one that introduced him to international audiences was relegated to mediocre DVD releases. But in the spring of 2026, the British boutique label Radiance Films finally released the film in the format it deserves, including it in the stunning limited-edition box set “Underworld Chronicles: Three Yakuza Fables.”

The 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray edition offers a radically new viewing experience. The fresh 4K transfer works wonders with the source material: the natural film grain is preserved without aggressive “smoothing,” the contrast in dark scenes is balanced, and the signature exaggerated violence and gallons of fake blood look as vivid as possible.

The strict BBFC 18 rating guarantees that this is an absolutely uncompromising and uncensored version of the film. Child killers, severed heads, and strippers shooting poisonous darts all the madness of early Miike is preserved in its original form. Combined with an excellent bitrate and Radiance’s traditionally rich selection of bonus features, this release becomes a true Holy Grail for collectors of Japanese cult cinema.
