Umagoya no reijô

Not sure if it was the print used to make my DVD or from the original cinematography but most scenes are so dark you can't tell what is happening. In one scene that takes place in three minutes it begins in twilight but bright enough to see everything to 30 seconds later only background building lights can be seen. I guess you can just use your imagination what's happening but then you don't need to watch this movie at all.

Basically the story centers around a woman living by a beach who thinks she can hear her horse. Nothing in that regard is proven. Along comes a man who is recording sounds. Mainly sounds of silence like the sky. Then two men and a woman who are creating art using mannequins. Where it goes from there I am not sure and yes I watched the entire movie. There is an ending to the story but that doesn't make much sense either.

It's a Pink Eiga film so there is nudity and a few sex scenes although it's too dark to see. There is supposed to be the woman manually pleasuring her horse but you need to use your imagination again as you can't see it.

It's just a broken story without any direction. Satõ must have slept thru the filming. Just skip this turkey. You won't miss anything.

Probably the worst Sato i've seen so far. I say that even though i can not be sure about if weather i like it or not. Satô's films tend to be a little on the obtuse side. I'm not complaining in fact i think it is one of its charms. However in this one specifically he goes a little overboard in that aspect. I couldn't at all understand what this film was about. Of course the awful VHS quality of the copy i got didn't exactly help but it seemed to me like at least half the film was filmed in almost complete darkness where you could at best see a silhouette and not tell whose silhouette it is. That makes it kind of hard to follow the plot when the film is one hour long and has 6 or 7 characters. Big Satô fan here but this one wasn't for me.

Yuu is living with her Ryusei horse on the edge of sea.One day a young researcher and three artists arrive and they disturb Yuu's quasi-telepathic relation with a horse."Staple Girl" is less provocative and scandalous than "Horse Woman Dog",but still offers some unpleasant scenes including the masturbation with a severed horse penis.One again Sato shows the world as the cold,morbid and unhealthy place filled with sexual pleasure and pain.There is a bit of extreme violence and the images of mannequins buried in the sand are strikingly haunting.Sato introduces a topic which will reappear in his most famous and goriest film "Naked Blood" that of the telepathic communication.8 out of 10.
