Tagomago@MibIH Stunning. Watched her on the “Stray Cat Rock” sequel by Toshiya Fujita. “Lady Snowblood” is on my list...
@tagomago She was also great In the Female Prisoner: Scorpion series! 🙂
@tagomago Enjoy! 👍
@MibIH Interesting movie! The story was a bit boring at times, OTOH, it’s got a beautiful set design and a really creative direction, I liked it. Also, her constant glare, omg... 🖤
@tagomago Nice!
There are three others in the Scorpion series (but I've only seen two of them), the second one is better (in my opinion).
Also try Blind Woman's Curse for more vintage Meiko! 😉
@MibIH Thanks for the recs!
@tagomago No worries! Enjoy! 🙂
@MibIH Oh, one final comment about the Scorpion movie. Some pattern in the background music suddenly grabbed my attention and I started to listen closely. Those repetitive chord progressions, those brass arrangements mixed with fuzz guitars... It was all too familiar. I just looked the composer up, and of course, it had to be no other than the great Shunsuke Kikuchi.
@tagomago I must confess I rarely take note of such detail (because I can't read Japanese) but I looked Kikuchi up and he was certainly prolific and on many anime and films I have seen. Thanks for the info! 👍
