Nekeddo burâddo: Megyaku

NAKED BLOOD is one of those movies that go way too far, showing the viewer things they don't want to see with no apology whatsoever. I had heard how extreme it was and wanted to see it. I was not disappointed, because there's an actual story happening here, not just mindless gore. Not that there's anything wrong with mindless gore...I just wasn't

prepared for the film to be so thought-provoking and beautiful.

A young genius develops a new wonder drug called 'Myson' which turns pain into pleasure - the more pain, the more pleasurable it becomes. His mother works at a local hospital and uses three women to conduct experiments on birth control. Unbeknownst to them, the son adds his new wonder drug to the other drugs and the three women become his experiment.

One of the women fries her hand, but it feels good and she then cannot stop hurting herself as it gives her more and more pleasure. Things get very messy as she cuts off her nipple and gouges out her eye and eats it!! She eventually kills herself.

Another cannot stop piercing herself and cutting herself. It soon becomes apparent that this drug is a nightmare - the victims can't stop butchering themselves.

There are several clever subplots but the real outstanding thing about this film is the gore - it's right up there with the best of the 'Guinea Pig' series and quite unlike anything you've seen before.

Highly recommended - if you call yourself a hardcore gorehound and are only used to Italian and US splatter, give this one a go - you'll be very surprised.

Eiji,a young scientist invents serum called Myson which transforms the pain into pleasure.His mother is conducting medical experiment on three young women.Eiji decides to mix his serum with the experimental product that his mother is working on.Soon the girls start to hurt and mutilate themselves with a strange pleasure at doing it.The three main female actresses are truly interesting characters-one is obsessed with eating and her obsession later results in incredibly graphic and shocking self-cannibalism scene,another is obsessed with her image.The third,Rika Mikami suffers from extreme form of insomnia-a condition brought by the trauma of her first period."Naked Blood" is a slow-moving film filled with moments of totally extreme gore.The scene where one of the girls slowly eats her own nipple and eye has to be seen to be believed!Still the film is pretty difficult to understand,so fans of mindless Hollywood's horror should avoid it.A must-see for fans of Japanese extreme cinema.10 out of 10!

This movie has a strange softness to it between scenes of intense violence. It is sur-real and over the top.

It is a dream-like movie.

Hisayasu Sato added a real story to this one, well a start and a end of a story, just not a beginning and a finish..but who cares?

Do people watch these for the story or the shock value? Shock value here is about 90%.The Story is interesting but has holes, at 78 minutes that is not surprising. The effects are amazing. This is a movie for gore fans and those that like "weird but inoffensive." Not really worth looking for unless you are a collector.. but if you find it do watch it.

One strange flaw was the over the top sound effects, I have never heard a nipple "crunch" until this movie.

Sato's extension of his earlier GENUINE RAPE is an incredible transgressive horror movie.A teenage boy sabotages his mother's anti-pregnancy experiments by spiking the test injections with his own endorphin called "Myson".Myson is his own concoction which turns pleasure into pain.The greater the pain,the greater the pleasure.Without wanting to spoil any surprises,i can warn the more weak hearted that there are some shocking scenes (a woman eats her own vagina lips with a knife and fork).But for viewers up to it,it's a fascinating,intelligent dissection of a movie that unwaveringly follows it's own premise no matter where it leads (like prime David Cronenberg for example).And it's a top notch exploitation classic. Sato is a very prolific director who's made countless movies (usually in the areas of sex and violence) since the 80's-but as far as i know,only this and THE BEDROOM are available subtitled in English. Did i mention the Virtual Reality cactus?
