FURIOUS AND CURIOUS

You know, you're kind of sexy when you're mad.

The panel length promo for Furyô anego den: Inoshika Ochô, aka Sex & Fury was one of the first Japanese posters we ever shared. It’s now the standard poster scan for this film on the internet. We see it everywhere, and it’s defnintely the one we uploaded because we recognize the various imperfections of the image. We’ve also had the above bo-ekibari style promo the whole time, and we’re sharing it now, whole and in halves, eight years after that first upload, just for the sake of completeness. Have you seen the movie? It’s pretty wild, and it has a love scene between Reiko Ike and Christina Lindberg. If that doesn’t make your loins go all hot and gooey you aren’t technically alive. Furyô anego den: Inoshika Ochô premiered in Japan today in 1973.
