... View MoreIt is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film
... View MoreOh man, this one took me by surprise. I bought this movie because I heard it was one of the more graphic movies in the past 10 years. That kind of talk always peeks my interest since I love action and horror films. I was bored after watching the first hour or so of this movie. I was thinking about sending it back and demanding a refund (even though I knew that would never happen). I was told to be patient, most of the gore was at the end of the movie. Well, that was totally correct. What I didn't know was that the gore was so over the top. I have a very strong stomach, and this movie made me want to turn away. I don't like to write a movie comment with spoilers so I wont get into the different things you could see at the end of this movie. I will say after I saw this movie to completion, I felt like I needed a shower. This movie makes you feel dirty. I makes you feel nauseous. I really cant see myself watching this movie again, but I don't think I will sell it to anyone either. I think I will keep it and lend it out to friends. This way I can be the guy who has one of the most graphic and disgusting movies ever made. I want to see my friends faces when the return this movie to me. I'm sure I will get a phone call right after they watch it, with them telling me how nasty it is. Thats why I will keep it, because it is the nastiest, most vile movie I have seen in a long, long time.
... View Morei enjoyed this film. A lot of people give this movie a lot of flack due to the fact it can get kind of pretentious at moments and about the first 75% of the film moves VERY slowly. The end in my opinion was very gratifying, the gore was well done....the whole thing is shot well, yes it is quite hoke....but everyone downing this movie fails to realize that it's a STUDENT FILM made on absolutely no budget whatsoever. The term student film gets overused quite often, no, kumakiri made this film as his thesis in film school, he actually was in an extra year and a half trying to scrounge the money to finish. So, it's nothing earth shattering...but it is quite impressive considering the context, situation, and budget, and it is quite brutal in the end. If you are a fan of underground/indie cinema chances are you'll at the least enjoy this little nasty.
... View MoreSet in 1970s Japan, Aizawa, leader of a little wanna be Yakuza, political student group has been arrested. He being behind bars has put a toll on his health, and it's just a matter of time before he passes on. The group is taken over by Masami, Aizawas' girlfriend. , who fucks everyone she can to control her stronghold. But once the groups' glorious leader commits suicide, the chaos begins.As the group slowly starts to realize the disorganization they have created they start to turn on each other, causing mass paranoia. Masami, possibly from all the humping she's done throughout the film, begins to snap. This is when the bloodbath begins. Beginning to crumble from the countless hours of chaos, Masami starts to assassinate the group.As sad as it may seem this is where the real beauty of this film begins. Now don't get me wrong. This is an excellent film. Director, Kazuyoshi Kumakiri has an excellent eye for mother earth's creations, and disasters for that matter, and gives us a good solid story. From reading the title and checking out the box, I was really expecting more gore. The gore that was in it was supremely excellent and nasty as all hell. And the sex was good, not your typical sex, but the orgies they conducted, the shotgun masturbations. That kind of sex. There were some pretty wild things going on in this group. But I really believe the directors' exploitation of presumed actual events and every day pitfalls for the Asian culture hits hard and gets no more real than this. Sad as it is, chaos and suicide seem to be a real problem in teens of today over there, which Kumakiri shows us with his surrealistic vision..All in all Kichiku: Dai Enkai is a really good film. The only downfall I have with this film is the pace was pretty slow up until about mid-way point. If I were to tell you that this film was Kumakiris' art house flick, would you believe me? I wouldn't. This film is pure beauty.www.unspeakablemag.com
... View Morethis movie is as violent as it will get. if you really want to get rid of somebody, show it to them. except if they like watching people eating other people's brain out after having them tortured to death. but, IF you can stand it, its a great movie. it was first shown on a film festival with a good reputation, and like everybody walked out. afterwards, the director of the festival apologized in public and said that they had not seen the film before.among other things, kichiku shows some aspects of japan that maybe you did not realize before.
