GL84 Working for a special corporation, a special hunter finds that a group of demons are attempting to upset the balance between an agreement held with several supernatural entities and must fight alongside a fellow agent from the supernatural world to restore the balance between societies.Frankly, this one was a rather thrilling anime. One of the more engaging aspects of the film is the exceptionally enjoyable storyline that manages to bring together plenty of unique concepts to the forefront. The idea of a treaty engaged between different members of supernatural factions is quite a fun ride, and the film gets a lot of play out of the idea that the treaty coming to an end means that a series of big battles must be engaged to restore balance. That this leads into a non-stop series of big action scenes between the two sides is quite a lot of fun, giving this one a breathless pace which is due to the great encounters with the terrifying demons and creatures, from the spider-woman surprise following their sexual encounter or the battle with the creatures at the airport which is enhanced nicely by the terrifying creatures he has to fight off. That carries along nicely with the later frenzied encounters where the shapeshifting creatures in the mansion or the creature that attempts to tentacle-rape her out on the highway where it seemingly throws every kind of deformed and tentacle-shaped being in their arsenal. Due to the rampant attacks from the creatures in another dimension with far greater powers than ordinary mortals due to the strong storyline, there's plenty of fun thrills to be had with the anime format which allows for the supernatural demons and creatures to be placed in far more terrifying detail as they truly look otherworldly and terrifying that makes the action that much more fun. The action here is given a strong stylistic charge with the way the scenes come off here, making this one look all that much greater with the neon color-scheme running wild in the film so that the battle in the spa with the demon nurse or the encounter with the spider woman in the tunnel are rather excited yet the highly romantic sequences look great as well. Graced with tons of nudity and a truly hilarious side-character for some comic relief, this one ends up with a lot to really like about it over a minor flaw. The overall feel of the film is that it just seems to throw elements together that have a vein hope of making sense but in the end, it really just has too many strands going for it. Things just seem to happen here and it never explains why people have their powers, what the overall goals are for each side or what the plot-twist is supposed to mean as hardly anything here happens for a reason. Beyond this, the film is quite a lot of fun.Rated Unrated/R: Extreme Graphic Violence, Full Nudity, Graphic Language and strong sex scenes.
Blonde Girl OK, so I have nothing against violence, sex, or even rape in a movie, as far as they're completely necessary or at least add something to the plot. So when they're needed and useful, I can't complain. But, when the whole ''PLOT'' of your movie is just an excuse for this scenes, then I might have a problem with it. So let me put something clear here: If you DON'T enjoy watching people get raped for no f*cking reason or unnecessary sex scenes, then avoid this wannabe porno at any cost. Everything felt completely unnecessary, and not only that, but the ending was completely illogical. OK so the old perverted man supposedly wanted the two of them to have a baby. Then, why not just tell them??? Like seriously, they share your ideals, they're from the same organization. And if that was the case, why did they got fired for leaving the old man alone? Did someone tell their bosses about the real plan? Was it just extremely undercover? And in one point the old horny man admits that he planned EVERYTHING. So the woman getting raped -sorry, can't remember her name, every character in this movie is extremely forgettable- was also part of his plan? Oh well, thanks a lot old man. Let's talk about the female character for a while, compared to the bland one dimensional excuses for characters in this movie, she was the only one I could feel empathy for, because she sacrificed herself for the rest, and what does she gets in return? She's raped and tortured for the rest of the f*cking movie. There are a lot of sex scenes here yet it's still hard to find a consensual one. The main character? I can't even call him a character, he's just the blank space in a fan fiction equivalent. Utterly forgettable.Avoid this movie at all costs.
phanthinga Wicked City is a solo anime movie of director Yoshiaki Kawajiri before he get to mainstream with Ninja Scroll and Vampire Hunter D:Bloodlust unlike his most famous stuff Wicked City is a very adult anime with raw,gritty and gory nature.It has some of the most impressive animation i ever see at the time and the use of the color red and blue in this brilliant.The plot of the anime is a mix of many genre like body horror,sci-fi and fantasy with a touch of adult themes and some time soft core porn.I can see it has been influence by a lot of American movie like:The Thing,Alien and The Blob if you can look pass all that i guaranteed you will have a bloody good time with this movie and find more gem from the early day of anime
Jaime Morales This is not an actual movie. It's literally just tits and tentacles. The only reason I didn't give it a 1 was because some people just might get off to this and the director probably had to have put SOME effort into this. Throughout the entire movie, the plot isn't really difficult to follow(political disarray between two worlds and people taking care of an important rep), but as I watched it, I just wondered what the point was in even having any sort of plot with all the sex going on. It wasn't even "good" sex either. Just tentacles and monsters raping others. It turned me off so hard. It was a complete waste of time and was probably the worst thing I've ever seen, personally.
