Miike's Young Thugs Coming From Artsmagic in October!

Given how insanely prolific Japanese director Takashi Miike is it's very unlikely that we're ever going to see a complete catalog of his films on DVD over here simply because by the time we get one out he'll have made two more. That sad fact is not preventing the good folks at Artsmagic from giving it the ol' college try, however, as they've just announced that they'll be releasing the two part Young Thugs saga in October. These are some of Miike's lesser known titles - never before seen outside Japan - but they are widely regarded as being some of his strongest work.
