Guts of A Virgin 2

AKA Guts of a Beautiful Woman

The second part of director Kazuo 'Gaira' Komizu's 'Guts Trilogy'. A young woman looking for her missing sister is kidnapped, drugged, and raped by a Yakuza gang. She discovers that her sister suffered the same fate before being taken to Africa and sold into slavery. The young woman escapes and manages to reach a clinic where she tells a nurse everything that happened. Then, with the drug still in her system, she runs to the clinic roof and jumps, killing herself. The nurse decides that she will seek revenge on the Yakuza gang responsible for the girl's rape and death. Unfortunately, her plan backfires, and she herself is captured, forcibly drugged, and raped. However, the gang overdo the drug dosage and the nurse dies - only to be resurrected as a hermaphrodite, inside-out, zombie/corpse, who promptly seeks revenge on all responsible for her own rape and murder.

If the first movie (Guts of a Virgin/Entrails of a Virgin) was Gaira's attempt at a 'cabin in the woods' type slasher, this is his take on the 'rape-revenge' genre. The sex/nudity is dialled back a little from the first film, but it's still pretty heavy. The gore, though, is amped up. Gaira obviously had a bigger budget this time around, and the prosthetics/splatter work is consistently pretty good. He even manages to work in a homage to the Alien chest-burster. The performances are still cartoonish, with inept Yakuza gang members serving as light-relief (these guys are definitely more Sopranos-style henchmen than Godfather), and as with the first film we have to wait too long before the blood 'n' guts start flying around, but it's well-shot, and overall is a slight improvement. 5.5/10.

Going to horror conventions sometimes you ran into shops with obscure Japanese flicks. Let this be one of them. It do has everything that you want from the old school Japanese horrors. Nowadays it's full of stupid CGI effects or has in fact nothing to offer.

This do offer quit a lot, but you will have to wait until the final part to see the gore. It's all about a Yakuza gang dealing in a special drug. Once the drug is injected in girls they become horny as hell. So on that part it delivers a lot of nudity. But naturally things go wrong when one of the victims escapes and get help by a nurse who is out for revenge.

As I said it has a lot of nudity and that's what the first part is all about but once the nurse is being captured the movie switches into a nasty flick with entrails being cut out and a cursed one with a giant penis with a mouth full of teeth. Heads are being smashed an even that giant cock does it's work.

It's a strange flick full with editing faults and continuity faults but still one to watch due the strange story. The bladder effects used once the drug is injected is also an effects to see. Not an extremely gory flick but still one to add into the old school category.

Kazuo Komizu, who hasn't made one decent film, directed this "notorious" shocker and should be ashamed that it was a hit upon its Japanese release.

Yes, it does feature scenes of rape, gore and dismemberment, but so what? It has the style of a bad American porn film shot and badly photographed by Ed Powers ("Dirty Debutantes") and is incredibly slow.

It seems to have earned its notoriety based on its roster of anti-social acts.

There is a huge difference between this and horror that is well produced.

Just because someone likes their cinema a little wet does not mean they'll accept crap like this. On the contrary, that kind of fan (myself, for example) tolerates even less crap than the average punter out there because he's seen so much and has become overly discerning. It's a shame production companies don't realize that.

One reviewer here (ZombieKilla81) commented that the film's "near obsession with gang rape" is one of the factors that killed it. I disagree. The subject matter is never the issue. The issue is how that subject matter is treated. In ENTRAILS OF A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN, it is treated so unimaginatively that it is boring.

Personally, I like graphic depictions of psychopathic behavior (with an intriguing context) if the material is well directed, freshly photographed and aesthetically pleasing. This Nikkatsu horror/pink hybrid is woeful.

"Entrails of a Beauty" features a gang of Yakuza blokes gang-raping a woman and they drug her,and later on she dies and returns as this big slimy monster with a huge penis that has sharp teeth and also a big sloppy vagina.Crazy film,but not very good.The gore doesn't come until the last 20 minutes and most of the film is a standard soft core sex with lots of rape.Worth checking out,unfortunately heavily censored optically and nowhere near as much fun as "Entrails of a Virgin".

This is straight out sexploitation like I have never seen.

A young virgin (Seira Kitagawa) is brutally raped and drugged and raped some more by the Yakuza. They did the same to her sister before selling her into slavery. She commits suicide after telling her story to a doctor (Megumi Ozawa), who then decides to investigate.

Hiromi's (Ozawa) plans don't go as planned and she finds herself in the same fix. But, after she is raped and drugged and thought to be dead, she turns into a hideous monster that does exact revenge.

The blood flows as violently as the rapes.

For fans of the outrageous.
