Ginî piggu 2: Chiniku no hana

My friend showed me this film, which he had on video. He is a huge fan of gore movies in general so I have seen my fair share of them. NONE of them compare to this film. This is by far the most repulsive film I have ever seen. I consists of a Japanese girl being slowly dismembered, which seems to take over an hour to do. Mind you, I am not someone who winces at bloody movies. I am a big Peter Jackson fan, and enjoy Fulci's films. This film is nothing like those. It's horribly realistic and sadistic. Supposedly, this film was investigated by the FBI because it was suspected to be a real snuff film. I do not recommend this movie. Anyone who sees it, I hope it is by accident. The effects are done brilliantly, and are quite convincing. Unless you are studying how to do impressive gore-effects, or are a sadist, try to avoid this film.

Although still very hard to find on video, this is absolutely the top of sadistic Japanese gore. The dismemberment of a naked Japanese girl strapped to a bed, filmed in intense close-ups and decorated with subtle sound effects, is one of the best examples of how gory horror movies should be made. In my eyes "Flowers of flesh and blood" has definitely set some new visual standards for the industry... And it even manages to eroticise the act of mutilation! This is absolutely unique and will perhaps shock the less hardened viewers among us. However, I found it quite the experience. But be warned: you will have to be a little sick in the mind to fully appreciate its content.

This film when viewed on an old vhs tape is really very convincing. Hardly any dialogue spoken and just lashings of the old ultra violence. A girl is kidnapped and tied to a table then a guy in samurai gear proceeds to hack her to bits. Then out comes the DVD release with a good quality picture and the effect kind of gets lost. It's looks quite phoney and takes away a bit of the "is it real ?, isn't it real?" factor of watching on low quality video. If you're into gore movies, watch it on video first, then catch it on dvd if you can, just to see how all the effect were done (theres a making of documentary on the DVD).

This was one of the most disgusting films I've ever seen. But I couldn't stop watching it. I saw a Japanese copy. Believe it or not, here in Japan, you can find this in used video shops among the Disney flicks and Chuck Norris sequels. The grainy filming and bad sound made it seem like a real snuff film. Supposedly, Charlie Sheen saw this and reported it as real. The effects were shockingly realistic. But they did have a segment where they showed how they were done. This should ease minds. Some people (like me) enjoy finding things like this. A real sense-tester. Watch it at your own risk.
