Synopsis
Abandon all preconceptions,
take a deep breath and prepare yourself for one of the strangest
(and funniest) movies of the year. Love it or hate it (theres
no other reaction) this hyper-kinetic satirical black sex comedy
is a wild ride. The mix of go-for-broke comedy, technical bravado,
and solid plotting establishes Ishii (director of the cult hit
SHARKSKIN MAN AND PEACH HIP GIRL) at the forefront of Japanese
cinematic stylists. PARTY 7 is an explicit homage to David Lynch:
the film weaves a physical and psychological maze of mirrors,
enclosures, secrets, sex and betrayal in the creepiest lodging
this side of Bates motel. The complex plot takes a bag of stolen
Yakuza loot, Captain Bananas room, seven extraordinary
characters, a polar Hell-bear, and brings it to a boil. Under-lying
the stunning visual design, and adding immeasurably to the films
effect, is the densest soundscape ever created for a Japanese
film. PARTY 7 stars prolific superstar-musician-model-artist
Tadanobu Asano (SHARKSKIN MAN, GOHATTO), Masatoshi Nagase (MYSTERY
TRAIN), and Yoshio Harada as the unforgettable Captain Banana.
