Viewing Notes

Now I own both the 88 Films and Shout Factory versions of this. Both look great but I haven’t compared subs to know which might have better translations. And of course the 88 Films version likely has better extras. This is another fun venom mob film that’s a little short on action but makes up for it with intrigue and a fun final battle at the abandoned temple.
