Dead or Alive: Final
Directed by Takashi Miike
Produced by Excellent Film, Toei Video Company
A surreal, kinetic cyberpunk action-comedy that blends hard-boiled crime tropes with absurdist humor and visual excess in a dystopian future.
In post-apocalyptic Yokohama, a hard-boiled cop and a mellowed out drifter hook up with a gang of rebels. When the gang kidnap the cop's son, the wheels are set in motion for an inevitable showdown.
