Why would you even watch a film in another language without subtitles or dubbing? No wonder all these reviewers are claiming it's difficult to follow - well of course it is! Why not get a subtitled copy? I found it easy enough to find and I wasn't even trying.

I thought this was good but I think it could've been awesome if they completely rewrote the ending, perhaps delved a little deeper into the home situation and didn't blur the sex scenes but to be fair, enough happened in the movie's time frame to keep me interested and entertained for the full hour and 5.

If you like Asian cinema, give this a try, it's definitely worth a watch.

If you are a fan of Martyrs, you will most likely adore this flick. The film is trying to show in multiple ways the ominous reality that is hidden under the bed. We have the main girl and her a bit, chubby classmate. She is always sad over ridiculous reasons, how for example pretty males do not like her, while the main character is silent about her actual seriously disturbing life, of her abusive father, disabled sister, that is constant basics being sexually assaulted by the father, and her mother that left them. We just feel horrible for the main character, and her sister that are literally going through hell. All male characters are monsters, and all-female characters are exploited by adult men. The film is very interesting and very depressing. The first time when i watched it, i teared up in the end, when our hero kills the homeless woman, when her "baby - toy", got broken and thrown by the two villainous men, and the heroic girl did not know what occurred.

This film when watching it for the first time, just like the Red Rooms, is a very disturbing, well-made movie. People that rated this film 1 star clearly rated it because of it's shock value, and not following the message this film is trying to indicate.

"Girl Hell 1999" aka "Injured Murder Rape Film" is another nasty film from Daisuke Yamanouchi's oeuvre.I own this sickie in Japanese,so the plot is not fully understandable for me,but here we go:a girl enjoys riding her bike and she meets her homeless mother in a field who is breastfeeding a doll(actual milk comes out).One day she comes back home and she sees her father raping her older sister who is bandaged almost head to toe.A rich pervert is stalking her and she encounters two teenagers on a murder and rape rampage.Japanese exploitation director Daisuke Yamanouchi specializes in making obscure and very nasty pinku eiga oriented films filled with sadistic rape and sexual abuse."Girl Hell 1999" has a feeling of "Red Room" movies and "Mu Zan E" as it offers plenty of nihilism.An interesting curio for fans of ero gro.All others should avoid it.7 out of 10.

The film is a film that touches on individual alienation and progresses at this point. The disappearance of values, nihilism, represents the main genre of the film. We see the situation with the competition within Japan and the masses being under the influence of nihilism. We watch this pitiful situation from the perspective of a young girl. The film had a full expressionist atmosphere, but it could not fully cover these mistakes. The mediocre acting of the film and its inability to draw you into its world made me dislike this expressionism effect, but I really admire the director's brave stage action, I have seen this current situation in his other films and he can do it without any fear of it.

Girl Hell isn't that known by the lovers of Japanese horror but it do is a classic by the Japanese splatter gore lovers. Up to this writing it never had a proper release outside Japan so it is only available in Japanese language and even then it's hard to find. Still, some are disappointed by this flick because the nudity scene's are blurred, a typical Japanese phenomena.

But for the lovers of ultra extreme flicks Girl Hell is available on DVD-R together with another ultra rare flick, Women's Flesh: My Red Guts. The difference between the two is that Girl Hell is a real flick with actors and WFMRG looks like a snuff flick. There's only one girl in it, unknown.

Girl Hell was for me not that extreme as being said. It's more a kind of exploitation flick were we follow one girl having a bad day. For some it might be a strange flick because we do see milk coming out of a breast while feeding a doll! Further on we do see a wife being raped by her husband but not on a normal way, she's strapped like a mummy. It do becomes weirder and weirder but gore is left out. The red stuff do flows but most of the ugly parts are done off-screen. naturally being only available in Japanese language it may be hard to watch for some but you will get the picture while watching it. I thought it would be ultra gory but be honest, it never really becomes that it only has a few rare situations.

But it's the second flick on the famous disc that do delivers the extremities. sadly it's of bad quality but people who can catch it will be glad to have a copy of this notorious flick. What we do see here is just one girl going berserk on her own body. Being influenced by an experimental drug she first finds out that penetrating her body do has his satisfaction. The only thing she uses herefor is some kind of metal spoon look-a like. She enters it in her mouth soon to be placed in her vagina until blood runs out. Once she's bleeding the drug do what it got to do and she starts to enjoy by cutting her body with a fork to be replaced later by a knife. She discovers that pain do gives thrills. the pain do becomes excessive until mutilation of the body becomes extreme.

Clearly not for everybody and comes into the regions of the almost lost an extreme rare to find Chinoumi by which none is known, not the actors or the director, another bizarre entry in Japanese underground splatter flicks. But it even can become more extreme with another hard to get example, the flicks by the Daikichi's Genki-Genki production house.

Japan, a strange country with the most extreme flicks.
