Description
A true crime story about Iwao Enokizu, self-styled "King of criminals." Director Imamura turns this fact-based story of the seventy-eight day killing spree of a remorseless man from a devoutly Catholic family, into a cold, perverse, and at times funny tale of the primitive coexisting with the modern.
