Entertainment Reviews:
[With a] unique storytelling approach and stylistic ingenuity.
Premiere
Rating: 4/5 --
Colour takes precedence over coherence, and madcap humour and tangents intrude on a stock narrative the director palpably doesn't care that much about.

[A] real find -- a pop-art yakuza revenge melodrama...
Entertainment Weekly
Suzuki can compose a beautiful image, but does so strictly to scald it

Product Description:
Filled with lurid imagery rare for its time, YOUTH OF THE BEAST is another stunning work from cult director Seijun Suzuki. Here, warring yakuza factions square off against each other, responding to a murder. Go-go dancers shield cops and twists are at every turn in this 1963 Japanese gangster film.
