Nasty! Yakuza Wolf winks at the spaghetti western, from which a lot of stylistic features are adopted, including the Morricone-like music. Only the makers move the whole concept to the gangster environment in Japan. Gosuke Hinomi (Sonny Chiba), the son of a murdered yakuza, has two goals: to avenge his father and find his sister. He puts different gangs against each other for this.

A lot of violence, and women are not spared either. This is a particularly misogynistic film. Including a woman who gets gangraped, where one thug cums loose in his pants before it's his turn . It is sometimes all sprinkled with a bit of humor, but otherwise it is not tender. Chiba usually plays a crappy anti-hero, but Lee Van Cleef was also in the Sabata films, so no problem. Not bad and sometimes nice and stylishly shot, except for the crappy action scenes that are edited messily.
