Title: definitely Miike, but its no Gozu or Ichi
Review: It's the story of an American man and his search for a lost love. but that barely scratches the surface of the forces at work in this movie. when our main character arrives at this particular island, his search may finally come to an end, but the world he is about to enter may be too much for his own sanity.there really are no redeeming or happy qualities to this movie, its a descent to a place most people wont be able to stand to watch. a story ripe with torture(one of the most drawn out, cruel torture scenes ive seen), death, and lots of other dark elements, including primitive abortion proceedures and disposal of dead fetuses in the river(probably why it got banned from American cable)if your a horror fan that isnt bothered by the content i listed above, by all means check this out, its more than worth the price.
