Coming on March 30th on Blu-ray in the UK from @88_Films as part of their #Japanarchy Collection: #Sakuran (2006)!
Note: I Believe this will also be released in the US on the following day but there is no confirmation of that yet.
Ancient Edo’s legendary Yoshiwara red-light district is brought back to life in Sakuran, the dazzling debut of acclaimed photographer Mika Ninagawa (Helter Skelter), based on the popular manga by Moyoco Anno. Anna Tsuchiya (Kamikaze Girls) is Kiyoha, sold into a brothel at a tender age and put to training as a courtesan. As Kiyoha’s rebellious spirit and renowned beauty provoke the jealous rivalry of the other girls in the establishment, the possibility of romance raises its head, but can love provide a genuine possibility of escape for a young woman in her position, in a refined sensual world where looks and deportment are everything? With its super-saturated colors and striking art design, Sakuran is a delicious feast for the eyes.

***ANNOUNCEMENT***
Coming on December 15th on Blu-ray in the UK from @88_Films as part of their #Japanarchy Collection: #OverYourDeadBody (2014)!
Takashi Miike's Over Your Dead Body is a haunting tale where art and reality collide. Set against the backdrop of a kabuki production, the story follows actors whose personal jealousies and desires dangerously mirror the ghostly play they perform. As tensions rise, the boundary between stage and life dissolves, unleashing a nightmarish spiral of obsession, betrayal, and supernatural horror. Elegant and chilling, Miike crafts a disturbing descent into blurred realities.

Coming on June 23rd in the UK and June 24th in North America on Blu-ray from @88_films as part of the #Japanarchy line: #GateOfFlesh (1988)!
In the shell-shocked, rubble-strewn wasteland of postwar Tokyo during the Allied Occupation, a group of prostitutes band to together to form a makeshift guild with the aim of pooling their resources to build a dancehall called Paradise. As their independent existence becomes threatened by the hawkish parade of gangsters, black marketeers and would-be pimps all looking for a cut from their flesh-peddling, the discovery of an unexploded bomb in the cavernous burned-out building where they ply their trade throws their dreams into further jeopardy. Hideo Gosha (Violent Streets, Yakuza Wives) brings a fresh eye to this oft-filmed story by Taijiro Tamura, best known from its 1964 adaptation by Seijun Suzuki, resulting in a powerful and compelling drama making its home premiere for the very first time outside of Japan courtesy of 88 Films.

Coming on June 23rd on Blu-ray in the UK from @88_films as part of the #Japanarchy line: #Zebraman2 (2010)!
Show Aikawa is back as the superhero like no other in maverick director Takashi Miike (Audition, One Missed Call) and screenwriter Kankuro Kudo’s (Go, Ping Pong) subversive and darkly satirical sequel to their 2004 homage to the golden era of Japan’s tokusatsu TV shows. It’s 2025, and our hero Shinichi finds himself waking up minus memory, zebra stripes and zebra powers in an authoritarian dystopian future. Tokyo has been taken over by a sinister ultra right-wing governor named Kozo, who has reconstructed and rechristened the capital as Zebra City and mandated a twice-daily five-minute purge called Zebra Time in which all crime is legal and his Zebra Police readily pitch themselves into the resulting free-for-all. It’s a society dominated by screens, and the screens dominated by a sultry pop diva named Zebra Queen, who just happens to be Kozo’s daughter. Can Shinichi regain his Zebraman powers to thwart the Kozo and the Zebra Queen’s plans to export their dark vision across the world?

Coming on April 21st in the UK and April 22nd in North America on Blu-ray from @88_Films as part of their #Japanarchy Collection: #JakomanAndTetsu (1964)!
Jakoman and Tetsu is an early action masterpiece from Kinji Fukasaku (Battles Without Honor and Humanity, Battle Royale), adapted from a script written by the legendary Akira Kurosawa. Set in 1947 in a small coastal village among the majestic snowy landscapes of Japan’s northernmost island of Hokkaido, Ken Takakura (the Abashiri Prison series, Ridley Scott’s Black Rain) is Tetsu, the prodigal son who returns from the war to help out his father Kyubei with the family herring fishing business. His arrival coincides with that of a one-eyed miscreant named Jakoman, played by Tetsuro Tamba (Harakiri, You Only Live Twice), who bears a long-standing grudge against Kyubei and is intent on causing as much mayhem among the hordes of seasonal fishermen as possible.

Coming on March 24th in the UK on Blu-ray from @88_Films as part of their #Japanarchy Collection: #Pinocchio964 (1991)!
964 Pinocchio depicts the nightmarishly surreal adventures of an illegally manufactured sex android found abandoned by his former owner and rescued from the scrap heap by a young woman, Himiko. She begins to tutor him in the ways of the world as if he were her own child, but with his original creators closing in, eager to conceal his existence from the authorities, it is not long before Pinocchio goes completely rogue.
The feature debut of filmmaker and industrial musician Shozin Fukui (Rubber’s Lover) presents a raw, hand-tooled vision that unfolds with a visceral and stomach-churning intensity as a break-neck charge through a brutal and uncaring post-industrial netherworld. 88 Films proudly presents this classic of early-90s Japanese cyberpunk cinema for the very first time on home video in the United Kingdom in a new 4K scan.
