Full Metal Yakuza1997
“Part Man, Part Machine, All Yakuza”
Directed by Takashi Miike
The premise
After being brutally murdered in a gangster-style execution, Kensuke Hagane finds himself brought back to life by a mad scientist and rebuilt as a robot-human hybrid with a serious thirst for vengeance and the tools to carry it out.
Horror Vault's take
A lowly yakuza grunt gets a second shot at life — and vengeance — after a mad scientist reassembles him as a lethal cyborg hybrid following a brutal gangland execution. Blending pulpy sci-fi excess with splatter-soaked ultraviolence, this Takashi Miike-directed curio revels in its own gleeful absurdity. The result is a blood-drenched revenge fantasy that gleefully deconstructs the yakuza genre from the inside out.
