ICHI THE KILLER: Watch The Brand New Trailer For Well Go USA’s DEFINITIVE REMASTERED EDITION Re-Release
Takashi Miike’s ICHI THE KILLER has endured as one of the most influential pieces of genre filmmaking of the last two decades, and now it returns in a stunning all-new 4k restoration approved by Miike himself. 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 Ōmori).
The film is currently undergoing a scant theatrical from Well Go USA since premiering in New York City last November. Toronto film programmer is also hosting the film as part of TIFF’s KinoVortex Winter 2018 line-up for its own screening on February 3 at the Bell Lightbox in Toronto.
