"The Black Shakes" or NAS. Read the book. It's far better than that shitty movie. I'm still hoping that they eventually make a movie based on the REAL story, in which the bit of fluff that was pretending to be Johnny's bodyguard is actually the hero of the story, with Johnny being largely just an incidental character to move the plot along. In the book she's a hot Razorgirl with mirrored sunglasses physically implanted over her eye sockets, and switchblade razor blades implanted under her fingernails. The Yakuza assassin is described as looking like a Japanese tourist.
