Blood-Red Water in the Channel backdrop

Blood-Red Water in the Channel 1961 Directed by Seijun Suzuki 海峡、血に染めて

Nikkatsu finally responds to Suzuki's growing discontentment by giving him a bigger budget and a better script. This episodic collection of "real coast guard action stories" was the perfect vehicle for Koji Wada. Whatever negative press he had received for Tokyo Knights was quickly forgotten. He became the new "teen star." And Suzuki: "the director to watch."
