Shin kankin tôbô: Gekijô-ban

A pretty girl named Kimika wakes up chained to the pipes of a boiler room, her captor a strange figure dressed in a padded sumo suit, their face hidden by a rubber gorilla mask beneath a gas mask. The kidnapper, using a voice changer, phones Kimika's CEO father demanding that he put a stop to his company's merger with China or else the girl will die. While her father decides what to do, Kimika's abductor abuses the frightened prisoner...

39 minutes did seem rather short for a pinku, but because IMDb's stated runtime matched the version available to me, I believed that I was seeing the complete film. Sadly, a number of jarring edits and a lack of shocking content quickly suggested otherwise. The version that I watched on a popular subscription streaming service was undoubtedly heavily censored - a dull, anodyne affair that delivered minimal nudity and practically none of the sleaze that the title suggests. I definitely won't be bothering with any of the other pink titles that the same service is also offering: all of their run-times are suspiciously short.

For the version I saw: 2.5/10, rounded up to 3 for IMDb.
