In the ruthless underground world of the yakuza, no one is more legendary than boss Kamiura. Rumored to be invincible, the truth is he is a vampire-a ...bloodsucking yakuza vampire boss! Among Kamiura's gang is Kageyama, his most loyal underling. However, the others in the gang view Kageyama with disdain and ridicule him for his inability to get tattooed due to sensitive skin. One day, assassins aware of boss Kamiura's secret arrive from abroad and deliver him an ultimatum: Return to the international syndicate he left years ago, or die. Kamiura refuses and, during a fierce battle with anime-otaku martial-arts expert Kyoken, is torn limb from limb. With his dying breath, Kamiura bites Kageyama, passing on his vampire powers to the unsuspecting yakuza. As he begins to awaken to his newfound abilities, Kageyama's desire to avenge the murder of boss Kamiura sets him on a course for a violent confrontation with Kaeru-kun, the foreign syndicate's mysterious and seemingly unstoppable leader! Show More

Kyoken, he is killed but not before biting Kageyama, transforming him into a vampire. Now a vampire yakuza, Kageyama seeks revenge and protection for his gang. With the help of a mysterious vampire hunter, a transgender assassin, and a talking frog, Kageyama embarks on a blood-soaked and hilarious journey to take down the international syndicate and avenge his boss. Yakuza Apocalypse is a thrilling and blood-pumping action-comedy directed by Takashi Miike. The film seamlessly blends elements of the yakuza genre with supernatural elements, resulting in a unique and entertaining experience. The movie is filled with over-the-top fight scenes, absurd humor, and eccentric characters. The performances, particularly from Yayan Ruhian as Kageyama and Hayato Ichihara as the vampire hunter, are incredibly engaging and add depth to the story. Despite the film's violence and gore, it manages to maintain a lighthearted tone, making it an enjoyable watch for both fans of action and comedy. Yakuza Apocalypse is a must-see for those who appreciate Miike's distinct style and want to witness a wild and unpredictable ride.
