Summary
One of the rarest and most sought-after cult films produced by Japan's Toei Studio, WOLF GUY is a bonkers mix of ultra-1970's style, horror, action and sci-fi. Shinichi "Sonny" Chiba (*Kill Bill, The Shogun's Samurai*) is a martial arts "manimal." The last member of a race of werewolves and a big city private investigator, Sonny isn't friendly with the police nor the gangland thugs running the nastier parts of the city. Based on a manga by Kazumasa Hirai (creator of 8 Man), and never before released outside of Japan, WOLF GUY is a genre film classic waiting to be discovered. *"WOLF GUY is a weird and bizarrely enjoyable movie." - Kyle Anderson, **Nerdist***
