The Threat (1966) Kinji Fukasaku Film coming from Arrow

[DukeTogo84]

Wow. Consider me shocked that Arrow is releasing this. I can't remember the last time they released a new to HD Japanese film, let alone a Kinji Fukasaku film!

This is a really good film! Along with Wolves, Pigs, and Men, I consider these to be his first two GREAT films.

This is a bit of a home invasion film that escalates pretty quickly. Think Desperate Hours, but a bit on the darker side. Again, I'm in shock that it was Arrow who picked this up, as I feel with all their Toei films Eureka or Radiance would have picked this up first.

Either way, I highly suggest crime film fans give this one a shot.
