Here's a few trailers:
http://www.japan-shock.com/trailers.html
Check out SHOGUN'S SADISM, SHOGUN'S JOY OF TORTURE, YAKUZA'S LAW and EAT THE SCHOOLGIRL. Also noteworthy is the forthcoming INFERNO OF TORTURE.
Other noteable mentions: GUINEA PIG: FLOWER OF FLESH AND BLOOD, BLIND BEAST, FEMALE MARKET, BLOOD SEX, NAKED BLOOD and ORGIES OF EDO (aka TOKUGAWA III).
I've heard good things about but haven't seen: RED ROOM 1-2, BLOOD SISTERS, MURDER SET PIECES (US), AUGUST UNDERGROUND (US).
Good shit. I also recommend
1.August Underground: Mordum
2.Cannibal Holocaust
3.Bloodsucking Freaks
I can't find any good trailers or pics of August Underground: Mordum. Good sites?

p.s.
TOETAG PICTURES is running a contest where the winner gets to BE SLAUGHTERED IN AUGUST UNDERGROUND'S PENANCE. All you have to do Is send a videotape (No more than 5 minuets) detailing to the TOETAG crew precisely how you envision your demise...
ttp://www.xploitedcinema.com/dvds/penance.html
Yep it is. Contest ended May 31, 2004. Still, I'm looking forward to Penance.
Thanks for the info. Eat the Schoolgirl looks absolutely AMAZING. A question about Guts of a Virgin: judging from the trailer, this looks like female-inflictor guro. Is it? Cheers.
seen some of those titles, but distrobution is lacking.
one of these days i will move to a city with some 'good' stores ^^;
2LDK needs to be added to this list! Just watched it and it's perfect guro fodder. Basically it's about two aspiring young actresses who share an appartment and their animosities escalate until they go after each other's lives with everything they can get their hands onto. I especially love the scene where they stab each other's throat and say "This feels good." Highly recommended!
Well, there are 3 GUTS OF A ... movies. The first one has a monster killing off the crew of an erotic photo shoot, the second has someone mutate into a skinless freak due to some yakuza drug and the third one is about a "female inquisitor" who tortures women and men to get information, but not really in bloody/gory ways.
You should buy them online. That's how I get all my DVDs.
Just one question. Is there any good Japanese guro "animation" that I can buy or download?
Anything specific you're looking for? Guro covers a lot of ground ... Your best bet would be looking for MANIAX or BONDAGE GAME. Those are easily the nastiest animes ever made. But even hentai classics like UROTSUKIDOJI feature plenty of violent sex that results in guts and gore. Make sure to check out ELFEN LIED. Another suggestion would be COUNTDOWN: KURENAI, which was never released in the USA, and for a reason. It's about a lonely guy who cuts out a girl's eye and fucks her skull. It's out on DVD (with no subtitles) in Germany. A friend and I are planning to do an English subtitled version of it eventually.
First of all, thank you for your reply. I've watched EL, which is really one of the best animations I've ever seen, and I certainly will check out the rest.
I think I am more interested in cannibalism, which is rather difficult to find, and most of the recent cannibal movies don't actually show "the important scenes"...if you know what I mean.
so...Any recommendation?
Countdown: Kurenai sounds AMAZING. Where can I find it?
I got some small Videos... if someone want, I just need ur e-Mail adress. (The quality of the videos is from "sux" to "ok")
Only animes with cannibalism scenes that I can think of right now are the above-mentioned BONDAGE GAME and VIOLENCE JACK: EVIL TOWN. But with EVIL TOWN you have to be extremely careful, because almost all versions of it have been cut and censored, including the US and UK releases from Manga Video. The Italian, French and Japanese DVDs are uncut, though.
http://www.1a-dvdshop.ch/Default.asp?idlnk=18073
Haha, looks like it's gone out of print now ... Well, like I said, a friend and I are planning to do an English subtitled fansub/bootleg version of the episode in question one of these months.
>>17
really appreciate your post...but..well, I can't read it. \(>o<)/=3
You mean the Swiss online store I linked to? What would you like to know? I can translate from German to English if necessary. But that site is of no use anyway, because the DVD is no longer available. I could post some screenshots of KURENAI, I guess. There's also a manga of that story, which has been translated into English by Eros Comix in the late 90ies. Don't expect the anime to be extremely explicit. It's more artistic than outright gory but that's what makes it so beautiful and disturbing in my opinion.
>>There's also a manga of that story, which has been translated into English by Eros Comix in the late 90ies.
not having any luck with google on this...was it published under a different title than "countdown kurenai"?
Yes, it was published as TEMPTATION #3. All three issues of that series were later collected in a paperback graphic novel that was just titled TEMPTATION. The artist's name is Hiroyuki Utatane. If you're having no luck finding it for purchase, you can always download low quality scans of it from: http://www.ezmanga.com
>17
If it was still available and I had some way to play region 2 DVDs I'd be all over that. Keep us posted about the fansub though, I think we'd all appreciate it. <333 In the mean time I'll be manga-hunting.
It maybe a little bit off-topic, but I really have to say this.
I have been watching Japanese hentai anime just to see if there is any guro content. I didn't find too many, but I found something else that's rather interesting: Why girls in hentai anime keep screaming like crazy when they reach orgasm? I mean...I have never met any girl who screams like this during sex. I wonder what those japanese producers were thinking when they made these anime...what do you guys think?
>>23
Exaggeration, exaggeration, exaggeration. That's what lots of pornography is all about. The big eyes, the big hair, the big breasts, the almost disturbing willingness of hentai women is all part of that. When people watch hentai/anime, IMO, many of them don't want to see a normal situation (though many WONDERFUL animes portray normality). They want tentacles, rapists, futanari, or, more mildly, just very forthcoming and very disproportionate women and/or men.
LIVE-ACTION GURO LOL!!1 = snuff
Respect the termonology.
>>http://www.fujikikaku.info/mdc/ah/ah01/ah01.html
Even though this is not the request section, this would be an outstanding /torrent... cough
this is just the first in the series, you know - here are all seven volumes:
ttp://www.fujikikaku.info/mdc/ah/ah.html
volume three is the infamous Lost Paradise directed by Merzbow; volume four has another film by Merzbow and one by the amazing french artist Romain Slocombe (these two are not harakiri films)
I really want to buy these but I haven't been able to find somewhere to order them yet; amazon.co.jp doesn't appear to carry them and so far I'm not having any luck with yahoo japan auctions either. if anyone can help me out I'd be very grateful.
I've also heard good things about this film and am similarly hoping to find somewhere to buy it:
ttp://www.gomorrahy.com/tamakichi-anaru/tumbling-doll-of-flesh.htm
by the way, the original August Underground (to which August Underground's Mordum is the sequel) is at last being released on dvd, sometime in late august/early september
available for preordering from either of these sites:
ttp://www.xploitedcinema.com/
ttp://toetagpictures.com/estatesale.php
the just-released Aftermath about a mad coroner having fun with dead bodies looks like good stuff as well, but I don't feel like I 've heard enough about it yet it to want to buy it sight unseen...
ttp://www.unearthedfilms.com/aftermath.htm
Sin City has alot of guro elements. Good movie
Has nay of you seen Squirmfest I and II? thats the only movie I still dont dare touching
SIN CITY was OK and indeed very violent. But it was filmed in black and white and very stylized so the gore had no impact on me. I liked the first episode best, by the way. And I'm definitely looking forward to the sequel(s).
I recommend the Sin City comics over the movie...though I wouldn't consider either guro
>>35
Haha, surreal. Some odd webdesign, but that's pretty well-done...
I've just watched AFTERMATH on the new DVD. If necrophilia is your thing, I doubt that movies about the subject get any better. Nacho Cerda, the director, puts a stunning level of technical proficiency into this film. It's beautifully shot, composed and - even though there is no dialogue of all - written. There's enough subtext to keep the arthouse fans happy (if they have the stomach for this) and enough gore and desperate corpse-humping to put a smile on the faces of us sick fucks.
thanks! it seems to be getting nothing but rave reviews thus far, I'll definitely have to check it out
Will Female Market ever come into the US on DVD?
I wouldn't hold your breath. But the Japan Shock DVD is region 0 and has english subtitles, all you need's a player that can handle PAL discs.
Another video is All Night Long (kinda like Guinea Pig)
Also Black Sun: The Nanking Massacre is very violent
Did anybody here watch "Ba Xian fan dian zhi ren rou cha shao bao" aka "Bunman: The Untold Story" or "Human Pork Chop"?
the director of the all night long series also did the 1995 movie on the "schoolgirl in cement" case...I really want to see it but it seems near-impossible to get a hold of
Where can I find a good NTSC/PAL adaptor?
>>45
I use lik-sang.com for that kind of stuff
I never bought an NTSC-PAL convertor from them, but I bought other stuff, they are a good store, but the shipping can be pricey.
They were one of the first stores to have a PSX->USB adaptor.
i watched it and it's pretty good. the standout scene is where he massacres a whole family including 6 little girls with a meat cleaver
I would also add THE DEVIL'S REJECTS and WOLF CREEK. Some great sadistic torture of women in those two!
ken foree is in devil's rejects and he's black. is that good enough for you?
Anybody going to see "Hostel?"
If I'd live in the US, I'd go see it. The way it is, I'll probably just download it or wait for the unrated DVD.
Hostel sounds pretty guro. It's about a club of people who love to torture unwilling victims until death. How much more guro can you get?
>>How much more guro can you get?
a lot
mainstream american horror movies are never going to qualify as "live-action guro"
not that they aren't pretty entertaining sometimes
Some flick based on a Kazuo Umezo horror manga:
http://www.twitchfilm.net/archives/004702.html
Maybe it will be worth watching, unlike the piece of shit that was Baptism of Blood.
probably a bad sign that reon kadena and saaya irie are in it :/
the manga is amazing though
or if you like your movies with actual acting. and why are you assuming everyone here is male?
you aren't into Umezu? seems like he'd be someone you'd dig, somehow
here's the writeup from the bibiography at the back of Orochi: Blood
"Umezu's most relentless 'pure horror' work: a masterpiece of the abnormal, of dream and reality colliding head on. A young boy experiences visions and nightmares that turn out to be related to his sister's massive vomit attack. It all goes back to a gruesome serial killing spree that occurred before they were born and still haunts the local community."
also contains the infamous loli-meets-scissors scene
Thanks for the information! Sounds like it could be a great film if they don't try to tone it down. There certainly are a few things that worry me. Not least of which is that the film was originally set to be directed by Hiroyuki Nasu, who was responsible for the live-action DEVILMAN movie, truly one of the worst films ever made; and that is before taking into account that it raped Nagai's masterpiece in more ways than a hentai artist could think of. On the other hand, the casting of idols is not really anything surprising or new for a Japanese genre film. It happens all the time, just that Western viewers are mostly not familiar with the girls before they see them in a movie. Now, if Kadena and Irie have big roles in the film that require them to do a lot of emoting then we may very well be doomed. But if they just have small parts - and of Irie happens to be the loli who meets the scissors - then everything should be alright.
I went to see Hostel. It was the best experiance of my young life. I was so worried i was going to orgasam while watching it ^_^
What is it with in Hostel that they really wanted to kill the asian girl?
And are those Japan Shock movies for sale in the US? Since they seem from Europe R2 PAL.
You can buy most of the Japan Shock DVDs from American online stores like this one:
http://www.xploitedcinema.com/
Just keep in mind that they are coded for region 2 and PAL (like you said) and may not work with standard American players and TV sets.
Is it true that R2 PAL DVDs can be used on any DVD-ROM? So maybe i could watch them on my PC than having to go though the pain if getting a NTSC/PAL DVD player and adaptor.
yeah you can watch them on your PC if you have a hacked DVD-drive or use software like DVDRegionFree. dvd-rom drives also have region codes when you buy them so you have to get rid of that first. after that, PAL and so on won't be a problem
Looks like my DVD-ROM is region free.
Also about Hostel, are there any pics of when Kana is blowtorched? Not asking for how here eye is out.
here's some more about BLOOD SEX:
http://www.db.megahit.co.jp/cgi-bin/itemview.pl?number=PBHD-08
Cool link. I have a question about hostel, is the asian chick tortured naked?
dude, are you kidding me? the asian chick's eye was out of her socket. Then the guy cuts her eye out iwth a pair of rusty scissors. Orange stuff oozed out of her eyes for christ's sake.
RED ROOM 1 and 2 just came out on DVD in Japan. They've been licensed for a release in the US but since Unearthed have some sort of distribution issues and won't release anything anytime soon I just went and picked up the Japanese discs instead.

There is a movie called Dollar Mambo, where this girl kills herself by ripping her own skin between her breasts. Before that, she dances naked.
Niku Daruma aka Psycho Snuff Reels:

there's this thng called paying money to purchase a physical copy of a movie because not everything is on the internets...radical concept, I know.
>>76
already mentioned in this thread as far back as >>29, you know
outside japan, PSYCHO: THE SNUFF REELS (aka TUMBLING DOLL OF FLESH), as well as SUICIDE DOLLS and WOMAN'S FLESH: MY RED GUTS from the same director, are available from various bootleg dealers such as visual-pain.co.uk, who also have the first three volumes of those harakiri films* (I'm emailing them to ask about carrying more of the series, join my campaign! I really want vol 4 - more merzbow + romain slocombe)
*www.fujikikaku.info/dvd/mdc/ah/ah.html
this looks good too
http://imdb.com/title/tt0161637/
often mistakenly considered part of the GUINEA PIG series
>>78 Right. Though I have the pay money, there is no place for me to pay for it here. They don't even ship here. That's why I asked.
You must live in a strange country that you have internet access but no postal service.
Thanks for the tip, I just bought a Japanese VHS of LUCKY STAR DIAMOND for 10$ on YAJ. Actually you can find SNUFF REELS and the harakiri videos on YAJ but if they are put up by a seller they are always hidden away in the adult section. AFAIK the only way for any non-Japanese to find them there is if you have a Gold Account with Celga. They've been getting more and more restrictive over the past months. Now they even made it impossible to search for anything with "rape" in the decription! And this is Japan ... tsk tsk tsk
>>83
secret adult section? 0_o that's annoying
no wonder I can never find anything good on YAJ

that's nice but I don't speak your moonlanguage and it doesn't seem to have anything to do with movies.
There's a torrent for both "Red Room" movies here:
How bout Aftermath? I heard that movie is all corpse fucking, but I have yet to see it.
How bout Aftermath? I heard that movie is all corpse fucking, but I have yet to see it.
sorry for the double post. I am pretty tired.
yeah aftermath is about a mortician fucking a corpse. there is no story to speak of. it's very clinical, too. didn't get me hard.
OROZCO THE EMBALMER
You've gotta see Imprint by Takashi Miike.
It features a long scene of geisha torture (being punished by beatings, burning, and having needles penetrated through all the fingers and gum, after which they hang her upside down when she pees herself), one hour of Engrish, and lots dead fetuses all over the flick!
Yeah, it's awesome but goddamn I wish he had filmed it in Japanese ... It's also interesting that IMPRINT is the first Japanese movie in about 10 years that was refused a R-18 rating by the japanese censorship board. It is currently playing in a handful of Japanese theaters in unrated form.
Murder set peices looks damn good. I gotta see that one!
Thank's. it's very interesting movies. Where can we download full movies?
Best bet is to scavange through http://www.isohunt.com/ with the titles.
There is a really awsome gore scene in a movie based on one of Stephen King's stories but I can't remember what it was called. I think it was something like Sometimes they come back but anyway...
There was this awsome scene where a girl gets "carded" to death and it's just awsome the way it happens.

Anyone else have some good pseudo snuff titles? I dunno, but I heard Salo was pretty disturbing. I haven't seen it yet.
Ichi the Killer is a good one,if slightly overrated
SALO didn't do it for me in terms of gore/snuff at all. It is a very pretty film with lots of underage-looking naked kids and some vry fake shit-eating, though. For pseudo-snuff, you should check stuff like MUZAN E, NIKU DARUMA (PSYCHO: THE SNUFF REELS), BLOOD SEX and the AUGUST UNDERGROUND films.
What do you have against the first movie? I friggin love the scene where a severed head eats a girl's pussy.
Here's another good one: Frankenhooker
http://imdb.com/title/tt0099611/
Contains dinner date with a severed head, exploding whores, electrifying sex, and some freakshow-type content later on.
RED ROOM 1 just came out with English subtiles in the US. Don't miss it since it's definitely one of the best and entertaining guro movies as opposed to the plethora of horribly cheap crap out there.

Most Samurai movies have scene of killing female ninja in blood. E.g. Lone Wolf and Cub. The hero killed 8 female ninja!
True but the gore is not extreme and you have to get through endless boring scenes with just talking and bloodless action just to get to a few seconds worth of halfway decent stuff. IMO that's not worth it. But maybe someone can make a clip with just the hot scenes and put that on youtube or something.

I just watched a kind of disturbing movie called Love Object. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0328077/ It has some gore, but it's mostly centered around insanity; nonetheless it's pretty creepy. Basically about the main character's first sexual encounter being with his sex doll, and the enmeshing of the doll with a girl he knows. There's BDSM, mutilation of dolls and people, and uh.. all around weird sex. Oh, and Rip Torn. Hahahaha.
>>134 Thanks you so much for recommending Love Object! I watched it last night and it was great! It's just my kind of movie. I have a fetish about guys having sex with inatimate objects and this movie really delivered for a girl like me. :) The twisted pyschological plot was too cool and it's very unpredictable. Kind of reminds me of a mix between May and American Psycho, only better.
