This week on Talk Without Rhythm, I'm continuing my month-long look at some of my favorite directors with an episode devoted the one of the most prolific, iconoclastic, and occasionally INSANE filmmakers alive today: Takashi Miike. To get a small sense of his varied filmography, we kick things off on the extreme end with 2001's Ichi the Killer, transition into family friendly fare with 2005's The Great Yokai War, then plunge back into the grotesque with his entry into the Masters of Horror series, 2006's Imprint.

This week on Talk Without Rhythm I'm joined by Dynamo Marz and Stephanie Wiley of the Elm Street Kid's Movie Club, and we run down a duo of films from two luminaries of Japanese Cult Cinema. First up we have Ryuhei Kitamura's frenetic homage to Western action cinema with 2000's Versus. Then, we correct an EGREGIOUS oversight on this podcast by finally doing a film by the extremely prolific (and profane) Takashi Miike: 2012's Lesson of the Evil.
