日活！！

The good folks over at Outcast Cinema have posted an announcement about their upcoming Nikkatsu New Action film series called No Borders, No Limits: 1960s Nikkatsu Action Films. There's a lot of info about the films, where they'll be playing, and how YOU can have it play in your home town if you click on the link above (or below) and contact them directly and offer them fistfuls of moolah.
