Another deadpan, no-nonsense gangster thriller that moves with relentless tension directed by acclaimed horror-meister Kiyoshi Kurosawa ("Cure," "Kairo," "Charisma"). After his 8-year-old daughter is kidnapped and murdered, tough yakuza Teruyaki Kagawa teams up with mysterious, mild-mannered math teacher Sho Aikawa to find the culprits. They capture two members of the yakuza's former crew and casually torture them in a derelict factory (one of the director's favorite locations) until both accuse each other, then a third person. As the two avengers go through their list of possible culprits, and as their hands become covered in blood, Aikawa reveals himself to be driven by a secret agenda more sinister than vengeance itself. A terrific low-key performance by Aikawa makes this a thoroughly gripping, gruesome drama.
