Screwed (1998, Japan)

“Asano is something of a director’s fantasy; he can look tough and threatening or sensitive and delicate in equal measure.”
- Initerview

"Teruo Ishii is a fantastic director, a great director! I love Teruo Ishii."
-Quentin Tarantino

THE ULTIMATE JAPANESE CULT FILM!

What do you get when you bring together the King of Cult Movie Directors, the King of Underground Comic Books and the King of Independent Cinema? You get SCREWED! Long considered the primary force in the cinema of transgression, Director Teruo Ishii serves up a fever dream of psychedelic sexuality and hyperbolic insanity that could only come from the mind of Japanese Manga God Yoshiharu Tsuge. Tadanobu Asano (Ichi The Killer) stars in this sexy, bizarre, and hypnotic adaptation of Neji-shiki (Wind-Up Type) that helped establish his position in the firmament of Asian and global cinema.

PANIK HOUSE is proud to present SCREWED in a newly restored edition of the unedited director’s cut. You have been warned!
