Use the Handcuff (1959)

Postby Space Hunter M » Tue Jul 19, 2011 4:39 pm

Does anyone have any information regarding this film? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0373354/ I can't seem to find even a single photograph or one-sheet poster of it. Does anyone here know what this film is even about? Has it ever been released on any sort of home video? Does it even still exist? The only thing that I know about this film is that some of composer Sei Ikeno's original music tracks were lifted and used as stock library cues in King Kong vs. Godzilla and Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster.

I have not seen this film, but here's a double page spread from Toho's 1960 international sales catalog that gives the film's English title, some basic credits, and a plot description:

You'd be pissed off too, if you knew what the score was! That trumpet player knows how things are, man! And things ain't pretty. Shadows are falling, the streets are dark with more than night, and the only things lighting the path are the cherries on the prowl car nipping at your heels. The only thing left to do is play. Play a dirge, play it loud. This joint blows, this town blows, this whole damn world blows, and you either blow with it...or get blown away. :mad:
