Nikkatsu Action line-up for Udine

About 5 years ago I stumbled across a whole load of publicity stills of 60s
Nikkatsu films in a secondhand shop in Amsterdam, some of which you can see
accompanying the Midnight Eye review of Black Tight Killers
(www.midnighteye.com/reviews/blatikil.shtml). It seems that a whole bunch of
films showed in Holland in the mid-90s as part of a series called Master of
the Bs, and the stills came across to accompany the films they screened. The
Dutch Film Museum will have more details, but I assume the films they showed
had English subs. Along with a handful of Suzuki films and Black Tight
Killers, I also had stills for a film called The Night Mist (Yogiri No
Bojyo, 1966)directed by Akinori Matsuo and starring Akira Kobayashi, and
Kill the Night Rose (this is by memory - I can't remember the director or
year).

Hope this helps.

Jasper
