#462 Charrière's FEMALE PRISONER #701: SCORPION (1972, dir. Shunya Ito)

EPISODE #462 We are kinda of back, just in time for the holidays. We talk about the (in)famous Japanese "pinky violence" film, FEMALE PRISONER #701: SCORPION (1972), directed by Shunya Ito. This is the first entry in the "Sasori" series, which is fantastic if you're into the idea of 1970's Japanese women-in-prison films. We also talk about CRUMB (1994), BLACK TIGHT KILLERS (1966), YOKOHAMA BJ BLUES (1981), and COOLIE (2025). Great stuff. A great little episode. Come and get it.
