Dead Or Alive 2 R0 (Uk Import) - Takashi, MiikeReleasedatum: 30 maart 2009
With Dead or Alive the extraordinarily gifted and prolific Miike Takashi created one of the most extreme and visually stunning films of his career. With Dead or Alive 2, he pushes the boundaries further than ever before. When Otamoko (Sho Aikawa) is hired to assassinate a ruthless gangster, he is surprised to find a mysterious gunman make the hit before he gets the chance to pull the trigger.
Deciding to take the money for the job he failed to complete, Otamoko flees the city, with Japanese Yakuza and the Chinese Triads hot on his trail. Hiding out on the island where he grew up he runs into the man who killed his target; an old friend named Sawada (Riki Takeuchi). Together they plan to use their shooting skills to rid the earth of evil, and set out to hit the gang bosses and drug dealers who make the world a worse place...
