Jigoku De Naze Warui
Japan
| 2013 | Shion Sono
Winner of the People's Choice Award in the Midnight Madness section of the 2013 Toronto Int’l Film Festival, this bloody comedy tells of an amateur Japanese film club that helps a yakuza boss realize his long-held dream of making the ultimate action epic. A real-life war with a rival gang affords him a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Cult auteur Shion Sono says that this gleeful, outrageous, Tarantinoesque meta-movie was inspired by “the love of 35mm.”
