We need more directors like him. Anyone living in Japan, PLEASE TELL ME WHAT IZO IS LIKE!

Talented, talented director

Anyone who can make a film involving somebody jerking off a dog, a girl dead in a bath of feces and someones face being cut off then sliding across the floor, they've gotta be good

wow..he sounds okay..so tell us more infor about this guy.

Actually, if you've seen National Lampoon's Van Wilder, they jack off a dog

But anyways...

Takashi Mike is filming a short movie right now.. or I think he's done with it. I'm not sure but it's called THREE MONSTERS and it's basically a collaboration of Korean, Japanese, and Chinese direcors each making their own horror-like story. So it's basically 3 different stories in one movie.

Korean: Park Chan Wook (Oldboy)
Japanese: Takashi Mike (Ichi the Killer)
Chinese: Fruit Lee

Park Chan Wook kicks @$$ too

Oldboy and Sympathy for Mr Vengeance rule

Did anyone see Dead or Alive series by him?? Are they any good??

After watching visitor Q, that guy is definitely fu-ked in the head.

Incest, rape, necrophilia, a son physically abusing his own mother, lactation, murder, mutilation are the things displayed in that abomination of a movie.

The movie was definitely criticizing and making a commentary on Japanese sociology of how their people are emotionally repressed and their inability to express their anger, but there are more subtle ways of going about showing this.

Sick, insane pervert or amazing genius?
