    Nightmarish and bizarre

    Wow, if you're reading this review; you've probably heard all the hype and controversy surrounding this movie and to tell the truth it deserves it. From the first 10 minutes of a female teacher turning into a demon and raping a student, to orgies to sodomy to some graphic depictions of violence; this film is an endurance test for a movie-going novice. I enjoyed this first segment in the series, I think the 2nd one (Legend of the Demon Womb) was slightly better, but they are both better than any other in the series including RETURN OF THE OVERFIEND or INFERNO ROAD. The later in the series, the more confusing and stupid it gets. Don't say you weren't warned!

    Repulsive but Incredible!

    This is rightly considered the greatest of all Hentai movies. Even anti-hentai Anime fans have praised it as revolutionary. But there are some elements of Urotsukidoji should have been dropped altogether. The pointless scenes of rape for one thing. And that schmaltzy scene at the end is badly done. But for all it's extremities, this has the kind of mind-blowing action, plot and animation which could have put it up there with Akira. Behind the sex and violence, director Hideki Takayama and writer Toshio Maeda have nonetheless managed to give us an acute observation of teenage sexual anxiety which has wrongly been interpreted as violent porn. Let's face it, we've all been like Nagumo at some point, hopelessly in love with Akemi but without a chance of catching her. It's both intelligent, observational, with touches of humour and outbursts of outrageousness. In short, it's anime fantasy at it's most humanist level. Very well done.

    I disagree.

    Urotsukidoji is a textbook example of Epic. This film is HUGE and is very, very complex. Sure the Japanese have a somewhat misogynist view on things but who are we to judge them? It's about culture. Urotsukidoji boiled down to the essentuals is basically about the search for the meaning of life (and destiny), morality, yes! sexuality BUT in context if you look at it the films are about doomed love.

    I don't have time to go into the ins and outs but if you look at the series using a feminist perspective one will find that the series actually treats all characters with the same distain. Yes, the destruction of the female principle is there (fascism reference- justified once again by the context of the series as A WHOLE) but it is the female characters that have the most depth. Take Megume for example, the so-called 'slut' archetype. if you look closer to the overall story her storylines are much more philosophical.

    Take even Amano, who at the begining takes a certain ambivalence to other people's suffering, towards the end he becomes more humanist. Take his metaphor of nature (how it goes round and round), we live and die then become one with the world. (See also THE WICKER MAN (1973))

    I could go on but it is far too complex to get into. I suggest reading up on Japanese tradition and mythology...I think you'll find your basic Shakespeare play will have all if not more of the 'deviant' themes that Urotsukidoji has. The difference? Books are treated with reverence...film's aren't. Why? cos Nazi's burned books but what people forget is they also suppressed film. Why? because they knew it had a power over the population that books didn't. (See 'Triumph of the Will' for an example of their abuse of film's emotive qualities).

    Nuff said!

    YOU CANNOT LOOK AWAY

    Possibly the most important Japanese gothic sci-fi tentacle sex horror metamorphosis allegory of our time, Urotsukidouji is poignant love tragedy wrapped in a shroud of horrific telescoping genitals and pink, luminescent semen. This movie is a large part of the reason anime has a negative reputation as porn.

    Follow Nagumo as he falls in love, gets killed, comes back to life as a super sex demon and lives happily ever after. His cute, innocent love story with the character Akemi is a grand contrast to his propencity for non-consentual sex with just about everybody he meets. He truly is Everyman. I mean, uh...isn't he?

    There is also an incomprehenisble plot about demons and half-humans and the repeated destruction of Osaka, Japan. But you'll have a hard time concentrating on the plot's intricacies, what with all the raping and the killing and the kicking and the hurting.

    Part II is also good (maybe better than part I), then the series dissolves into post- apocalyptic gobblediguck. But if you have an insatiable appetite for monster porn, you better watch them all.

    Erotic horror done right.

    One of the earliest 'hentais' to make it state side, this helped spark the uber obsession America's geeks have with anime. Featuring graphic violence, explicit sex and an adult-themed apocalypse story, this is one of anime's best offerings.

    The world, it seems, is divided in to 3 parts. The human world, the beast world and the demon world. Demons being evil, beast being good, and humans caught in the middle. An ancient prophecy speaks of a creature, called the Overfiend, which will be born of man and will bring either peace or destruction to the three realms. The race is on to find it's vessel on Earth and harness it's potential power.

    The story has more than it's fare share of fantasy and horror, it seeks to balance the two elements and does a nice job of it. But the main reason most people will watch this is the same reason I did: anime-sex. For inexplicable reasons that stuff is just plain hot, probably because they do things in the medium one would never see in a live action film.

    The sored acts include all manners of regular sexual activity all the way up to tentacle rape. Yes, I said tentacle rape. However, unlike most other products of it's kind the sex doesn't feel like cheap excess nor does it come off as the only viewing point. Graphic (often fully explicit) though it may be, it serves a purpose with in the larger story. Rather than a stopping point it furthers the action.

    Horror purists will be happy to know that mixed in with the sex and fantasy elements is a healthy dose of horror, J-pop style. Dr. Suess-inspired underworlds, great creature designs, and gobs of spilt hemoglobin. The ultimate conclusion is a little hard to get past at first (as with many J-horror films), but it still wraps up nicely.

    Anime fans, horror geeks, and the rain-coat crowd should definitely seeks this one out.

    9/10

    • Anecdotes
      This was the first animated feature film given the NC-17 rating by the MPAA.
    • Gaffes
      The girls tormenting Niki were apparently hiding out in the school's gym equipment room, as in on school grounds. All seven of the girls are horribly and inhumanly mutilated in that very room (one of which was reduced to a skeleton), but the next day school is still open and the students make no reference to the event.

      Narrator: Mankind, you are an ignorant race. How foolish it is to believe your kind rules the Earth. Know now that your are not alone, there are unseen worlds that exist parallel to yours. These are the worlds of the Makai, a race of demons. And the Jujinkai, those that are half-man and half-beast. There is an ancient legend, a prophecy fortelling the appearance of a super being every three thousand years. He is called the Chojin! A god above all gods, the Overfiend! The Chojin will appear through the body of a human and with his great power he will unite the three worlds. He will create a new world, a world of peace and harmony. His time has now come!

    • Crédits fous
      The names of the voice actors in the credits of the English-language version are fake and many of the aliases have sexual connotations. Bill Timoney stated that this was due to the actors being disgusted by the film.
    • Versions alternatives
      Also available in the original uncut 3-episode Japanese version which is much more sexually explicit than the NC-17 theatrical version released in the U.S.
