Takashi Miike's Ichi The Killer has endured as one of the most influential pieces of genre filmmaking of the last two decades. 

This visceral, bloody, and often hilarious film follows Kakihara (Tadanobu Asano), a notoriously sadistic yakuza enforcer whose search for his boss killer brings him into the orbit of a demented costumed assassin known as Ichi (Nao Ohmori).
