The Rating System

All opinions are my own. We are all different. What I may think is great, you may this terrible. Don't let my opinios stop you from exploring the vast world of horror in all media.

~Mind Blowing: Search for this movie immediately. It can only be described as pure greatness and possible an instant classic.

~So Good: Highly recommended because for one reason or another it stands out above the usual fair. Put the movie on your radar as it wont disappoint.

~In the Middle: The movie is a nothing special, average affair. It may entertain in the short term but it will be easily forgettable in the long haul.

~Warning: This movie is a cliched driven slop of familiar territory. Only watch if you're really of fan of this type of material.

~Steaming Pile: The movie is absolute garbage, a complete bore, and not worth the time or effort.

Yakuza Weapon (2011)

AKA: Gokudo Heiki

Director: Tak Sakguchi, Yudai Yamaguchi

Premise:
A man seeks revenge on those who killed his father.

My Take:
I personally love this types of extreme and outlandish movies from Japan. Plus I would expect nothing tame from the team that brought us Meatball Machine and Battlefield Baseball. The movie doesn't take much seriously, which is why it works. Weapons fused onto body parts and over the top characters are the norm in this flick.

Rating: In the middle (but fun)
