Who doesn't love sex and violence? We all do. That is why we all love movies like...
First off, this is a Japanese film, so no British doctor-turned-crazed-killer makes an appearance. We do get a male killer with a similar method of murder though, so it is not all false promises.
*
It all begins with a man and a woman driving in the rain. One of them is sort of bitchy and the other is pretty weak-willed. They pick up a crazy lady who proceeds to rip off her top and cover her torso in cake frosting. No, seriously. She gets even stranger when she cuts her arm and whips out a set of razor blades. They kick her out, but she won't take the hint. In the process of trying to ditch her, they accidentally run her over.
*
After ditching the body, the two proceed to have wild sex. They hook up the next night, but the passion is gone. The girl figures out the problem pretty quickly- they need to kill again. By the way, this scene features a horrible-and unpaid- endorsement for Coca-Cola.
*
The violence escalates very quickly and the guy gets really into the killing. But, he begins to stray. No, he does not feel remorse, silly. Instead, he begins to kill people on his own and not follow up the death by screwing her. That son of a bitch! Long story short- he kills a lot more people and then her.
*
This movie is all about two things: subtlety and sex. This is summed up best by a later bit of dialog from the crazy girlfriend. She says "It's been ten days. It has been ten days since we f#$!ed!" It truly has.
*
The movie is mostly about sex, which is a bit off-putting. Not to mention the whole story about rampant rape and murder. This is part of the Violent Pink movement from Japan which is...curious and odd. More on that later.

Coming up next: Making a jet out of crap. Stay tuned...
