Here's one I really enjoy that most English-speaking folks have probably never heard of. It's got top secret military experiments, the Yakuza, a sad clown, and some very satisfying special effects from the era.

I'd be curious about the story behind the writer or director because a group of invisible men who are forgotten and can't function in society almost sounds like a metaphor for something. Maybe the Japanese untouchable class or Korean immigrants or just some type of lingering post-war existential angst. |

Could be a loose metaphor for survivors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, or even for soldiers with PTSD. Japan was certainly forced to carry its memory of the war differently than any other country. |
