A rather astonishing, starkly stylized blood flood set inside a privatized prison.

Apart from Ichi the Killer, it is the only live-action film ever to capture the anarchic, excessive, highly stylised violence of manga. Full Review

Nam ... delivers an amusing and exceedingly cinematic comic-book phantasmagoria.

A wild martial arts feature that combines a prison movie setting with the sort of gore effects one normally finds in a horror film.

If you can handle the torrent of grisly violence, you'll find yourself royally entertained by this Hong Kong actioner. Full Review

Product Description:

An excessively gory, over-the-top adaptation of the extreme manga "Riki Oh." When his drug-addled girlfriend commits suicide, the titular hero kills her dealer and finds himself locked up in a privatized prison where the accused have no rights. The other inmates torture Ricky with any available implement, but he fights back with a bloody vengeance. You know that head that gets smashed at the beginning of every episode of THE DAILY SHOW' That's from this movie.
