An Eye for an Eye and a Hole for a Hole

Directed by Daikei Shimizu

Kenji, the young head of Kato yakuza organisation, just got out of the jail. He comes home and founds out the opposing Sawaki yakuza is invading Kato’s territory. Sawaki recruited Ikeyama and asked him to kill Kenji, but Ikeyama was Kenji’s lover who exchanged the cup of brothers in a jail.
An Eye for an Eye and a Hole for a Hole is a deliberately crude Japanese erotic revenge film that mixes violence, sex and black humour. Daikei Shimizu leans into exploitation excess, making the film confrontational rather than emotionally subtle.
