One of the most depraved films any human being has ever seen. This is where over-the-top meets the stratosphere. This is the sum total of what happens when you drop the atomic bomb on a culture. Around the time this movie was made, kids in Japan had a fad where they'd inject saline into their faces so they'd look like they had a bagel protruding from their head. I could be wrong, but my theory is that director Yoshihiro Nishimura wanted to either comment on the ever-escalating obsession with self-modification, or just completely out-shock everyone. Probably the latter. Actress Eihi Shiina is the cop who has to purge Tokyo of its so-called "Engineers," human genetics modifiers who fantastically transform their bodies into weapons. Again, there is crazy content in this one, so in the right mindset, it's all very interesting and eye-opening. In the wrong mindset, you'll curse me just for suggesting it.
