DEADLY OUTLAW REKKA is, easily, one of Takashi Miike's most under-rated movies... of the 40-50 out of his 100+ that I've seen, so far. IMO, the opening (this video) is about as solid an argument necessary, in support of that claim. FLOWER TRAVELLIN' BAND's album, Satori, makes the perfect soundtrack, as if the 1971 recording was planned to be used as an intrigal part of this 2002 Yakuza epic (which was loosely based on a chapter in the legendary, Noboru Ando's life). REKKA was my introduction to Joe Yamanaka and his amazingly powerful band. Satori is the heaviest thing I've heard from the era. I've never quite been the die-hard Black Sabbath fan that, even I, once thought I should've been. Some missing or incompatible element. I can't explain it better than that, but, I bet, Flower Travellin' Band could.
