Director: Kinji Fukasaku
Genres: Crime, Thriller
Rating:

The Black Lizard (Kurotakage) takes place in the sub rosa world of organized crime in Japan. Famed female impersonator Akihiro_Maruyama stars as a Dragon Lady type called the Lizard. In this guise, she (he?) masterminds all illegal activities in Tokyo. The Lizard jeopardizes her power when she falls in love with detective Isao_Kimura. The grotesquery of the storyline and characters is emphasized by the cameo appearance of playwright Yukio_Mishima, playing a "Human Statue"-that is, an embalmed corpse. Hal Erickson, Rovi
