A watershed film in the legacy of Takashi Miike, Fudoh is still one of the director's most disgusting and disturbing endeavors, nearly 10 years after its original release. A classic vengeance story with a twist -- dad kills one of his sons to make good on a betrayal, leaving the other son to exact vengeance on dad and everyone else -- this blood-infused gangster flick leaps from copious scenes of executions (exploding heads, acid baths, you get the drill) to a stripper who shoots darts from her, uh, thingee and a teacher who reveals herself to be a hermaphrodite. Mind boggling in its degree of bad taste, Miike fans will eat it up.

Aka Gokudô sengokushi: Fudô.
