Ryôky erochika: Niku daruma

Business as usual for Japanese art house: let's make a Movie that half of the world can't go through because they passed out and the other half would watch it with one eye shut. Some censored pornography plus lots of chuped body part. Well done.

I think it was one of the most boring extreme horror films I've ever seen!

The gore scenes weren't that great, and the hardcore scenes were a bit...meh... I mean, nothing you can't already find on a dedicated site, maybe they were more interested in bdsm scenes.

It was a bit of wasted potential, the film promised quite well in its plot, but on a visual level it didn't deliver; it could have been much more

I mean, cute but not that much, if you want to waste some time it's fine, but not if you want to see something serious about the genre

However, the actors still performed quite well, so again, wasted potential.

i came across this film on the net by fluke and i was horrified by its content of vivid abuse violence and torture scenes. it was a relief to know it was not real after reading the comments. what dangerously sick animals of a person make something like this and for what purpose goes beyond belief. i was even more shocked to see people appraising the film in the comments section of this site. this is a extremely disturbing film indeed which could change your life forever. the people behind this should be bought to justice asap. today they shown a girl getting raped and butchered on screen tomorrow it could be a child. even its fake or not its very very deathly disturbing,nauseating indeed.

This movie was such an inspiration and got me closer to our lord and savior Jesus Christ. I felt so humbled and uplifted with this amazing family friendly movie! Such a GOOD movie to watch with your kids and family MAYBE EVEN AT CHURCH! Overall this movie was a thrill and personally I cannot wait for another! I absolutely love this adorable gracious movie. I forgot to add how much this movie means to a Christian such as myself because it is so in tune with my beliefs. I would recommend anyone to watch this movie at school, sleepovers, with your lover, at a local cookout and with anyone you can watch it with! 10/10.

Gore can be a really important part of a horror movie. It is to a horror movie what a good seasoning is to a dish. That being said, when you over season something, it becomes overpowering and inedible. This is the exact case for Niku Daruma (Tumbling Doll of Flesh), a 90s video nasty in the long line of Japanese films that infamously (and woefully) identify themselves with the misogynistic sub-genre of literal torture pornography. The only other film I've watched in that same category (solely out of curiosity) was Girl Hell 1999. Both films have no plot, are shamelessly anti-women, horribly shot, and have no rhyme or reason for their abundant filth. What makes me even more angry is that these are scene as pornography; something that people are aroused by. I'd be mortified and angry to think that anyone could be aroused by kidnapped women being dismembered and sexually assaulted.

F-
