Yakuza Busting Girls (Sukeban Hunters)The official website for the upcoming pinky violence-inspired “Sukeban Hunters” films has been completely overhauled with links to two brand new trailers. Judging from the website, the English title is apparently “Yakuza Busting Girls”.

It probably goes without saying, but neither of these trailers are work safe.

Yakuza Busting Girls: Duel in Hell (Sukeban Hunters: Jigoku no Kettou) was written and directed by Shinichi Okuda. The intro line translates to something like “Intense gun action and gore effects by Yoshihiro Nishimura lead to the creation of an incomparable macaroni western!”

Plot: Asami returns exausted after three years of intense training to become a yakuza hunter. She decides to visit her old master, Inokuma (Sakichi Sato), who runs a bar. However, she finds his place in ruins and nothing is as it was when she left. As it turns out, the local yakuza had turned it into a gambling house and laid claim to the entire area with the help of a cold-blooded killer named Akira (Hitomi Miwa). Akira is relentless, and utilizes cruel tactics when anyone dares get in her way. Inokuma decides to hide Asami with the very first yakuza hunter, Miki (Yumi Yoshiyuki). However, in her dogged pursuit of the remaining yakuza hunters, Akira brutally murders Miki’s family and burns down Inokuma’s bar. Eventually, Asami’s rage finally reaches its peak.

Yakuza Busting Girls: Yakuza Death Ride Battle (Sukeban Hunters: Soukatsu Nagurikomi Sakusen) was written and directed by Kazufumi Nakahira and also features gore effects by Yoshihiro Nishimura. The intro line is “Five women risk their lives in battle, the psychedelic violence movie is born!”.

Plot: Asami was thought killed after being betrayed by Junko (Rena Komine), but she suddenly returns to town after a 2 years. However, a lot has changed since she was last around. Yakuza have taken over the town and the powerful Kanto Sukeban Alliance which Asami once headed had been completely decimated in the process, with former members now turning to drugs and prostitution. Under the guise of sukeban hunting, Junko had led her old friends to slaughter at the hands of yakuza boss Murakawa (Jiro Sato). Because of this, Asami has gradually been enveloped by flames of rage. Meanwhile, four yakuza hunters pledge their lives to her cause as the stage is set for a final bloody battle at Tokyo Bay.

“Yakuza Busting Girls: Duel in Hell” will open at Theater N Shibuya on May 22, 2010. “Yakuza Death Ride Battle” will open on May 29th.
