BLACK TIGHT KILLERS is a 1966 Japanese action comedy in which a raffish war photographer falls foul of a gang of female ninjas after his date is mysteriously kidnapped.

violence
Strong bloody images occur as a pair of villains are struck with throwing stars and another is pulled into electrified water. Moderate violence includes stabbings, shootings, and use of improvised weapons such as a chain and a golf club during stylised fight scenes. Henchmen strip a woman down to her underwear and spray her with paint in the belief that covering her skin will cause her to suffocate. We also see moderately bloody images of bullet wounds and knife blades protruding from people's torsos in the aftermath of violence.
sex
A man finds a bound and naked woman on the floor of a pornography studio and attempts to come to her aid, only to discover that she is consensually performing in a BDSM porn film. The nudity is limited to brief sight of the woman's buttocks.
sexual violence and sexual threat
A henchman gropes the breasts of a naked female captive; however, the detail is masked by shadow, and the woman remains calm and certain of her imminent rescue. There is a comic scene in which a woman seduces a man into bed, whereupon it is implied - without strong visual or verbal detail - that she uses a ninja technique to trap his penis within her body in order to interrogate him. After overpowering the man guarding her, another woman covers the sound of the struggle by crying out as if in distress, tricking his associates into thinking he is sexually assaulting her.
nudity
There is brief sight of breast nudity in a sign advertising a pornography studio, and again after a woman’s top is inadvertently torn off during a fight scene. A sequence set inside the porn studio features female rear nudity.
flashing/flickering lights
This work contains flashing images which may affect viewers who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy.
additional issues
The film contains moderate knife and gun threat. A short sequence shows giggling ninjas fleeing a fight after being gassed by a laughing gas grenade. Bad language includes ‘shit’ and ‘bastard’.
