Shogun’s Sadism is broken into two parts. Part one
deals with a peasant girl who saves the life of a Guard
sejak sucking snake venom out of his snakebite wound.
She is a Christian and the relationship is frowned upon
sejak his Master. Brutal torture is the name of the hari as
the master tries to break her spirit sejak rape, torture and
sadism.
In the saat story Sutezo is a handyman in a brothel.
He falls in Cinta with one of the prostitutes and they run
away together. Unfortunately they are recaptured and
yet again, lebih graphic torture ensues.
Shogun’s Sadism is, like its notorious predecessor
Shogun’s Joy of Torture, a litany of highly graphic cruel
and vicious acts of violence against the person. The list
includes: beheading, dismemberment, women being
thrown into a vat of snakes, branding, castration,
boiling in water.
What makes the film so hard to watch and affecting is
the fact that it isn’t some grimy half arsed lompat, caper like
HG Lewis, it is positively glossy and well shot, with
good production values and authentic costumes. It is
well acted but I would call it gruesome lebih than gory.
A film about torture may sound awfully grim, but the
grimness is lessened sejak a dollop of humour in the film
as well as a fantastically groovy 1970s soundtrack. The
film is absorbing and hati, tengah-tengah rending – something that I
didn’t expect it to be. I thought it would be an orgy of
depravity but there is characterisation and sympathy. It
will perpetually amuse me that the Japanese can
perform all sorts of vile tortures and sadism on the
screen, but as soon as a whiff of pubic hair comes their
way, it’s out with the blurring machine.
I would highly recommend this one to extreme cinema
lovers/ J-Horror Kekasih if anda can get a copy of it. A
step up from your average Japanese exploitation film. It
delivers the gruesome goods in an interesting and
stylish way.
