Party 7 - Asian Cult Cinema Collection

Cult filmmaker and popular commercial director Katsuhito Ishii (Shark Skin Man And Peach-Hip Girl, The Taste Of Tea) brings you seven of the strangest characters you´ll ever meet. Yakuza punk Miki checks into the remote New Mexico hotel to hide out after stealing a case of gang loot. Not long after, Miki´s old flame Kana and her new, geeky boyfriend Todohira show up to collect on a debt, but are soon followed by Miki´s elder gang brother Sonoda, who´s looking for the stolen money.

Meanwhile, shy peeping tom Okita hides out in a secret room built by the mysterious Captain Banana, and both are watching the whole proceedings. Finally, hot on Miki and Sonoda´s trail is oddball mob assassin Wakagashira, who´s also got a strange obsession for plastic model kits! Throw all these personalities together in the same hotel room and it´s a recipe for a party of mistaken identities, sexy comedy and violence. Mixing the spirit of Quentin Tarantino with comic book aesthetics - and an eye-poppingly gorgeous production design - Party 7 is an unforgettable portrait of seven weirdos trapped in a cycle of craziness that will have you alternately laughing and gasping with surprise.
