Genre icon Jo Shishido stars as Kuroda, a mob hitman who turns on his employers after being forced to execute his lover. Joining forces with his similarly wronged brothers, hot-headed Eiji and aspiring boxer Saburo, the trio escalate their mob retaliation to all-out turf war. Strikingly violent for the period and gorgeously photographed in monochrome, Massacre Gun is a bold iteration on the genre featuring some stunning compositions and the assured direction of Yasuharu Hasebe.
