"Savage, bawdy, and darkly funny, Vengeance Is Mine is a striking journey in the mind of a killer that will linger on in the viewer's consciousness long after the credits have rolled." - Jonathan Crow, AllMovie.com
"The finest Japanese film of the 70s." - Kevin Thomas, L.A. Times
-----
PLUS, on the same program:
VIOLENCE AT NOON 1966, Japan, 99 minutes, 35mm, Janus Films Directed by Nagisa Oshima Screenplay by Taijun Takeda Based on Tsutomu Tamura's novel Starring Kei Sato, Saeda Kawaguchi, Akiko Koyama, Mutsuhiro Toura, Fumio Watanabe In Japanese with English subtitles Wed & Thu: 10:10 pm
"...the film's formal audacity impresses the most, as Oshima fiddles with odd-kilter compositions, gorgeous flurries of imagery, and a playful chronology that anticipates directors like Nicolas Roeg and Richard Lester." - Scott Tobias, The Onion A.V. Club
