The gritty yakuza flick, directed by Kensuke Sonomura, will screen at Austin's Fantastic Fest on Friday, ahead of competing at Sitges in October.
The film is set in Kaiko City, a place torn apart by rampant corruption and violence amongst a private conglomerate, the yakuza and even the authorities. But after a mafia-connected businessman runs for mayor and begins systematically eliminating his opponents, a former police captain imprisoned for murder is released in a desperate, last-ditch effort to take the corrupt tycoon down.
Bad City stars Hitoshi Ozawa , Hideto Katsuya , Masanori Mimoto , Akane Sakanoue , Masaya Kato , Yoshiyuki Yamaguchi and Lily Franky . Well Go is known for its regular North American release of edgy action titles from across Asia, with semi-recent titles including Korean zombie sequel Peninsula, Hong Kong’s Better Days or Japan’s First Love from Takashi Miike.
