This is some movie. At first deceptively simple and later maybe deceptively involved. Such was the confident manner of the director, Takashi Shimizu, I just went along despite everything and whilst it is difficult to associate with the lead character, the mighty, actor/director (Tetsuo) Shinya Tsuramoto, eventually persuades. Not an easy film to watch with its flashing and even blank screen moments, not to mention the horrific violence, but once this has you hooked, it is difficult to escape. Everything is unbelievable and yet there is a niggling doubt that just maybe things are this bad. Tsuramoto gives a towering performance as a completely lost soul searching it seems for almost anything to justify his existence. What he finds is not a pretty sight but this movie remains with you, for good or bad, long after viewing. Bold and original film making.
