The endings for the Takashi Miike "Dead or Alive" films are all very cryptic and off-beat, and are very confusing. Are there any websites or sources that can properly explain just what the endings to these movies (this one in particular) mean?

Trivia
There are two versions of the DVD available in the US, an R-Rated edition and the uncut original edition. One funny thing about the cut R-rated edition is that in the opening montage scene, despite the footage of the homosexual gangster raping the busboy having been taken out, you can still hear the audio and sound effects overlapping the other shots in the scene.
