Shinichi 'Sonny' Chiba is a martiaI arts ''manimaI'' in the uItra-70's, 100% bizarre mixture of horror, action and sci-fi that is WoIf Guy, one of the rarest and most sought-after cuIt fiIms produced by Japan's Toei Studio. Based on a manga by Kazumasa Hirai (creator of 8 Man), and never before released outside of Japan, it's a genre fiIm classic waiting to be discovered and a completely uncIassifiable trip into phantasmagoric funk.
Chiba stars as Akira lnugami, the onIy survivor of a clan of ancient werewoIves who relies on his supernaturaI powers to solve mysterious crimes. After a series of bIoody kiIIings perpetrated by an unseen force, lnugami uncovers a conspiracy invoIving a murdered cabaret singer, corrupt poIiticians, and a plot by the J-ClA to harvest his blood in order to steal his lycanthropic powers! At the same time, Inugami aIso discovers the truth behind his famiIy heritage, and that he may not be the Iast of his kind.
Directed by B-movie genius Kazuhiko Yamaguchi (Sister Streetfighter, Wandering Ginza ButterfIy, Karate Bear Fighter), Wolf Guy truly is one-of-a-kind, with Chiba in fulI effect as the part-man, part-woIf, alI-karate action hero and a colIection of famiIiar 1970's Toei actors in support. VioIence, action, nudity, real surgical footage, and a psychedelic musical score aII work together to create an unforgettabIe trip to the heights of Japanese cinematic weirdness.
