Yo Yo Girl Cop, Dasepo Naughty girls, NY Asian Film Fest

The action-chick-flick Yo Yo Girl Cop is…

Directed by Kenta Fukasaku, son of Japan's master director Kinji Fukasaku (Battle Royale) (…) an off-the-rails revival of Japan's much loved, cult fave 1980's TV series, Sukeban Deka, or as we say in English, "Delinquent Girl Detective."

Link, premieres in New York next week at the NY Asian Film Fest. Here's the trailer on YouTube: Video Link.

Also at NYAFF next week, Dasepo Naughty Girls (Korea / 2007) looks like a winner — based on a popular webcomic, and described in the tease as a "hurricane of horniness." Link. Still from the film below.

Reader comment: Steve Leggat says,

I knew I recognised the lead in Yo-Yo Girl Cop as Matsuura Aya. While I can't wait to see that movie, I find there's no better way to start each day than watching her music video for Ne~e: Video Link.
