By   |  Dec 15, 2023

Eureka Entertainment are bringing the 1972 Japanese action thriller ‘Yakuza Wolf’ (狼やくざ 殺しは俺がやる) and its sequel, ‘Yakuza Wolf: Extend My Condolences’ (狼やくざ 葬いは俺が出す) to UK Blu-ray on February 19, 2024.

In the Spaghetti Western inspired ‘Yakuza Wolf’, a mysterious black-clad killer (Sonny Chiba) with a personal vendetta against the yakuza manipulates two rival clans in order to draw out his targets, leading to a climactic bloody shootout that must be seen to be believed.

Then, in ‘Yakuza Wolf 2’, Chiba plays a criminal who is betrayed and sent to prison. After serving his time, he wages war on the yakuza, eventually raiding the mansion of the crime boss who turned on him in a spectacular, action-packed climax that would later be directly homaged by John Woo in ‘A Better Tomorrow II‘.

Features:
• 1080p presentations of both films from new restorations
• Original Japanese mono audio
• Optional English Subtitles
• New feature length audio commentaries on both films
• New featurette by Howard Hughes
• Original theatrical trailers
• Limited edition O-Card slipcase
• Limited edition collector’s booklet

‘Yakuza Wolf 1 & 2’ is available to pre-order now from Amazon.co.uk.
