Ploydsge just watch it!

Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

trashgang This is a very weird flick. Were as the first part is extremely boring the second part is full of gore. The thing that makes it almost not watchable is the fact that it was filmed badly and the translation in the subtitles came too late or wasn't done for some parts. It's easy to spot that it's all about politics and that one crazy girl has the lead. She bangs everyone that she come across and she even give head with a chickens head. Further she does that again with a man but unlucky for him she bites his weener off. And that's were the gore comes in. She's as mad as hell and shoots one in the head in a gory way to perform some kind of necrophilia with the corps. I wasn't really into it because the first part is as stated rather boring. But I was told about the extreme gore and I must admit that that was done in a pure old school way. But still, even as I like gore this isn't one of my favourites due the way it was shot and the bad acting. If one is ready to be killed you just don't care or the girl being opened in different ways, who cares. But gorehounds will adore it but please skip to the 40 minute to see it slowly come in all the glory gore.Gore 4/5 Nudity 1,5/5 Effects 4/5 Story 2/5 Comedy 0/5

Neptune DNA Ever read a novel with missing pages? Perhaps a vague abstraction confused you... Whatever the circumstances, ambiguity resides in relation to this films details and lack thereof; so, if you find yourself asking a lot of questions--especially during the opening half--then don't be surprised. Whether it was deliberately done or not is another debate, but this is a "student film" apparently. Let's hack into the meat of the celluloid now, shall we?!?After losing their leader (Aizawa) to jail time, A group of leftist stalwarts (whose true cause we're never quite sure of, aside from the fact they're seemingly at odds with the prevailing authoritative paradigms, and who may be displeased with the Vietnam war, as one reviewer mentioned), set forth on what becomes a violent power struggle with catastrophic and sanguinary consequences. The aftermath of the aforementioned imprisonment results in an order from Aizawa that his girlfriend is to head the group until his release. A decision that's met with some resistance, but things really turn when the head of the snake is cut off, so to speak. Witness the descent spiral into the abyss of oblivion (barring, you have the patience.) Character-wise, a somewhat diverse ensemble, the rebels are made up of. A nerdy fellow newcomer, A strong silent type with a sword, an annoying female lead with an unsightly countenance, one underling to the incarcerated who asserts his bravado, and a few tag-alongs.*Urgent bulletin*: The first hour is S-L-O-W. *End bulletin*. Well, with the introductory information out of the way, you're probably wondering about the political allegory, symbolism, and profuse gore Kichiku is noted for. Fret not, for there are some impressions--a few drenched in crimson--that this reviewer would like to notify the reader about.-The last member to join the group before its complete and utter combustion seemed to represent traditional values, to an extent. The mute observer seemingly skirting the precipice. Somewhat like he belongs to a bygone samurai age (He wields a nice blade), while those around him represent a new-world pariah mindset. One of youth & contempt for control/authority. Perhaps a product of what they hate (the latter); thus, making them mere reactionaries unsure of what they really want. Are they confused? Eh, maybe.-A Japanese flag with a bloodstain on it, subject to 'stabbings'. I don't think I need to explain that... -Related: Anarchists? Anti-war demonstrators? Te**o*ists? You figure it out.-You'll be forced to reconsider the context of rifles in relation to female genitalia. Heh. -Related: A scene in the mountains, it reminds of Scanners. What a mess of that cranium! Bloody hell! Literally!-Lastly, We see the self destruction of powermongering and the hysteria it brings. Regardless of status or political persuasion, the cycle always ends the same way. Leftist, Reactionary, Staunch Right-Winger, it's all the same when infighting & an inherent lack of discipline clash with egodrama over that elusive thing called control. The affiliations and labels of such cabals render themselves irrelevant in the face of human savagery and animalistic thrashings. Anyways, Kumakiri made a decent flick with both shock appeal and political leanings. Give it a look you cast iron stomachs, you.

Golgo-13 This low-budget, student film out of Japan is quite a depressing and nihilistic watch. The first half is about a radical, left-wing group of young adults. Their leader has been jailed and his girlfriend has taken over. When they find out he committed suicide in prison, she goes violently insane and drags the rest of the group with her, resulting in a very graphic shotgun blast to the head, two castrations, a beheading, and a number of other vile, cruel, and disturbing scenes. That all said, it is still rather boring and seems pretty pointless, though I believe it was inspired by similar groups and events in Japan in the 70's.

FieCrier I made several abortive attempts to start watching this movie, but it was so boring that I kept giving up. I just made it all the way through, and I have to say I thought it was a waste of time.A group in Japan has a leader in jail. A woman in the group has sex with some of the members. They noisily eat some noodles. They go into the woods and kill a few of their members. They laugh annoyingly. They go to an abandoned building and the remaining members kill each other. The end.There's simply not much that happens in this movie. The group's purpose was never really explained, nor do they ever do anything. None of the characters have any characterization. The end credits were not subtitled in the version I saw; perhaps there was some explanatory text mixed in? There were also some handpainted signs in the beginning of the movie that no translation was given for; perhaps it would have helped to know what they said.There are scenes with gore starting about an hour into the movie, but if that's all you're looking for, then you're better off watching another movie. If you must watch this one, I'd advise generous usage of the fast-forward button.
