WOLVES, PIGS AND MEN is a 1964 Japanese crime drama in which a gangster recruits a gang of youthful delinquents to rob a powerful criminal gang.

violence
People are tortured in an attempt to extract information. Characters' fingers are clamped in a vice which is tightened to break their fingers, and which causes them to scream. A character beats the back of his own hand with a brick in order to show a fellow gang member that there is nothing to fear from pain. People are beaten and shot, and there is blood on clothing and bodies in the aftermath of some of these scenes.
language
Strong language ('f**k') occurs, as well as milder terms ('whore', 'pussy', 'shit', 'bullshit', 'bastard', 'ass', 'screw', 'damn').
sexual violence and sexual threat
A gangster attacks a young woman, tearing at her clothes before briefly lowering her trousers to reveal her underwear. However, the scene cuts away before there is any sight of sexual violence.
injury detail
People are shown with cut and bloodstained bodies. There is close-up sight of a person's heavily bloodstained hand with broken fingers after they have been tortured.
additional issues
Scenes of sexualised nudity include posed pin-up photos featuring women with their breasts exposed. Photos taken by a concealed camera show a couple apparently engaged in sexual activity; however, there is no strong detail. The film contains several scenes of gun threat. There is brief sight of an implied hypodermic injection of an unnamed drug, as well as verbal drug references. Drug misuse is not condoned by the work as a whole. Adult characters smoke cigarettes in scenes which reflect the time period in which the film was made.
