I usually watch these a once or twice a year -
There's a certain glow with the lighting from this era of Anime - and you can practically smell cigarette smoke on the celluloid:WICKED CITY (sorry to the purists, this is a dubbed trailer)
Also in the same vein - alternate dimensional demonic battle type stuff:
DEMON CITY SHINJUKU - some of the background art was done by Kazuo Oga - he's famous for most of the Studio Ghibli works
And the director of both of these and a ton of other historically epic anime films, Yoshiaki Kawajiri, also did shorts - namely RUNNING MAN from the NEO TOKYO collection (Shown in the states on Liquid Television):
RUNNING MAN (I can't find a good link, but this "LORN" music video is a pretty cool cut --- however - do try to find the original if you haven't had the pleasure - it's mind-blowing - literally.
