Riding the ‘Asian Extreme’ wave of the late 1990s, revered Japanese director Takashi Miike achieved global prominence with his astonishingly graphic films Audition and Ichi the Killer. Now, with a hundred films under his belt, the prolific filmmaker has defied all attempts to pigeonhole him as a niche director. He is both a film festival darling and a big-budget hit-maker. Best known for over-the-top violence and gore, his films cover a much wider range of genres and styles, inclduing light-hearted children’s films (Zebraman and The Great Yokai War), period pieces (Sabu), subdued road movies (The Bird People in China) and farcical musical-comedy-horror (The Happiness of the Katakuris). Takashi Miike joins us to talk about the road leading to his 100th film, the blood-drenched supernatural samurai movie Blade of the Immortal.
