The Game Trilogy

Yûsaku Matsuda stars in this Japanese action trilogy directed by Tôru Murakawa. Hitman Shohei Narumi (Matsuda)'s world is one of conspiracies, betrayal and corruption from which there is no escape. In 'The Most Dangerous Game' (1978) he is hired by Kohinata (Asao Uchida) to rescue his son-in-law who has been kidnapped by the Godai Conglomerate, but that isn't all Kohinata wants from Narumi... 'The Killing Game' (1979) finds Narumi forced out of retirement and caught up in a gang war between two rival yakuza clans, while chance meetings with two women from his past pull him deeper back into his old life. Finally, in 'The Execution Game' (1979) Narumi is betrayed, abducted and tortured and then hired by his aggressors to take out another veteran assassin.High Definition Blu-ray (1080p) presentations of all filmsOriginal lossless mono Japanese soundtracksOptional newly translated English subtitlesReversible sleeve featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Tony StellaDouble-sided fold-out poster featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Tony StellaIllustrated collector’s booklet featuring new writing on the films by Hayley Scanlon and Dimitri IanniDISC 1: THE MOST DANGEROUS GAMEBrand new audio commentary by Chris Poggiali and Marc WalkowThe Action & Adventure Man, a 30-minute interview with director Toru MurakawaOriginal Japanese theatrical trailerImage galleryDISC 2: THE KILLING GAME & THE EXECUTION GAMEBrand new audio commentary on The Killing Game by Earl Jackson and Jasper SharpBrand new audio commentary on The Execution Game by Tom MesRemembering Yusaku Matsuda, an interview with Yutaka Oki, film critic and personal friend of Yusaku MatsudaGame Changer, an interview with The Execution Game screenwriter Shoichi MaruyamaOriginal Japanese theatrical trailers for both filmsImage galleries for both films
