Hosts Josh and Jamie and special returning guest Perry Ruhland discuss expertly directed, unconventional 90s crime thrillers about five guys in the criminal underworlds of Japan and Hong Kong teaming up to do a job and it not quite going to plan in Takashi Ishii's ruthlessly bleak yakuza heist-horror hybrid GONIN (1995) and Johnnie To's artfully controlled triad hangout movie THE MISSION (1999).
