![Female Yakuza Tale [DVD]](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91KKE+Vi6iL.jpg)
Follow-up to Norifumi Suzuki's 1973 exploitation film 'Sex and Fury'. A gambler and underworld mover and shaker by trade, Ocho (Reiko Ike) moves to Kobe where she hopes to start a new life in the city but she's kidnapped by a gang of punks who tie her up, rip off her kimono and carry out a vicious assault. When Ocho wakes up, she finds herself laying next to a dead woman and holding a bloody knife in her hand. Determined to find the men who did this to her, Ocho sets out into the streets of Kobe. Aided by a lone wolf adventurer (Ryohei Uchida), Ocho investigates a ruthless gang of cutthroats who are using indentured street walkers as drug mules to smuggle heroin from China.

Female Samurai Warrior
This film is very sexy and violent, but not as good as Sex and Fury.brilliant performance from leading actress, Reiko Ike.Both films were made back in 1973 in Japan.

A disappointing follow up
Sex & Fury is a great film. If you are a completionist you will want to get both - but my advice is to forget this sequel. Plot and character development is sacrificed to pointless 'shock' tactics - which would be fine if there was a coherent story in there. As it is it just comes off as a rushed (same release year as Sex & Fury) and practically unwatchable follow up.

i hoped for more
From reactions here i understood this was a powerfull film with not to much coherence. A pitty. The climax is one of a kind and not easy to forget. But for the rest the film was to busy telling a story. With acceptionel story's that's OK for me, but for the most i like my films cloudy and unrational, more like a dream. There were some nice images and ideas, but all the energy that went into storytelling made the film very boring to me.

Original director Norifumi Suzuki has been replaced with genre favourite Teruo Ishii
Ochō Inoshika is mistakenly kidnapped by drug traffickers and accused of murdering another woman. She is helped by Jyoji and discovers that the criminals use the vagina's of women from a gang of female thieves to smuggle drugs to the Clan Ogi led by the Yakuza Goda.This is the only sequel to the popular Sex and Fury. Well its a prequel as this is set before the events in the first movie. Original director Norifumi Suzuki has been replaced with genre favourite Teruo Ishii. Unfortunately however this doesn't match up to its predecessor in any way.The story is a little confusing with drug trafficking, rival gangs, the mysterious death of the “Old Boss” a man who once saved Ocho's life when she was a young girl. Strangely I have heard people enjoyed this more than the first movie but I don't see how.As with Sex and Fury we have limited action sequences. This however has even less. The opening titles is my favourite part of the movie. Were in the rain Ocho takes out a group of bad guys with a umbrella with a blade that shoots out of the tip. This is the only time we see her in action until the ending. Of course we get lots of nudity from the waist up and Reiko Ike has a sex scene with a middle aged man which is very dull.The climax is typical exploitation with a group of naked girls taking on two rival Yakuza gangs in a drugs warehouse. It is pretty bloody with the girls naked bodies been covered in bright red blood. I was disappointed that Ocho was only seen briefly in this final fight.The score has a very good main titles theme but the rest of it fails to live up to the titles standards.Overall its a good film but not as good as Sex and Fury.GREAT DVD QUALITY
