If the Motion Picture Academy of Art and Sciences weren't such a bunch of snobby limp-
wristed sissies this should have won for best foreign-language picture of 2008.
Near future Tokyo is run by private police who look like crosses between a samaurais and
Darth Vader. A gleeful coroner with an eyepatch and a blue mowhawk takes bloody tumor-
like keys out of dead bodies.
Now he'll HAVE to get a girlfriend.
A sexy policewoman who runs around in a black leather mini skirt,fishnets, trechcoat and
a samauri sword watches a kid with too many face piecings eat caterpillars on the subway
(in extreme close-up!)
Chainsaws to the face, exploding heads, flying eyeballs, leather-clad amputee fetish
prostitutes, exposed brains, dicks bitten off, hilarious fake TV commercials,
Goth Girls ORDER NOW!!!
intestines pulled out, faces cut off (and sometimes spit out of sake bottles!), a guy with a huge
mutated penis that shoots bullets, acid spurting out of tits, Al Queada (or maybe Abu
Grahib?) style executions by the boatload, patrons at a fetish club in blackface(!?) and
a quadruple-amputee with machine guns for arms and legs(!!!)
"In your FACE, Quentin."
As in Shogun Assassin blood sprays out like a fire hydrant most of the time. In one scene
she walks away from a tsunami of blood under an umbrella (!)
A sexy blonde tatooed '40 WAV look chick narrates it all through a chrome microphone. The score
is early-Stooges sounding music with deadpan female vocals. I want the soundtrack album!
The end credits promise MORE GORE COMING SOON!
Don't miss!
