Girl Boss Guerilla

(1972, Norifumi Suzuki)

About a year ago I took my very first trip to Japan and THIS was the first movie I ever saw there, shown at the Laputa theater in Asagaya, Tokyo. It’s a classic pinky violence film featuring pioneer actresses in the genre. It was a surreal feeling to not only to see a film like this in a cool little indie theater but also the place was packed with fans! Holy shit! The movie is badass, though of course, pinky violence is not for everyone so watch at your own risk.
