Muscle Influenza (1997)

Directed by Akira Arima, Keiji Ichikawa

Overview

Probably the film in which more people are kidnapped in the shortest amount of time than any other film in cinema history. The antics and light-heartedness that run throughout the film, including the storyline, make it worthy of being called a ‘violent film’, despite the fact that there are no violent scenes at all. It is also a ‘hero film’ in that the protagonist has style and sticks to it whether he is hurt or not.

Length 11 minutes
