On the eve of the release of his all-star samurai epic 13 Assassins, The Film Society and Subway Cinema are proud to present New York’s first major, in-person retrospective of genre-hopping master of cinema Takashi Miike.

The prolific Japanese filmmaker first smashed his way into the American consciousness in 2001 with Audition and Ichi the Killer, heralding a wave of “Asian Extreme” sex- and violence-crammed titles. But over 80 films later, Miike has outlasted all attempts to pigeonhole him as a cult director. Featuring everything from major hits to legendary rarities never before screened here.

Miike in person for rare U.S. appearance at multiple screenings!
