Product Description

Set amidst the desolate background of a warped and twisted Japan. Raigyo takes its concept from a real life event in which a black clad woman murders a man that she had just met by chance through a phone sex club. Her chosen place for this execution, where he will be stabbed to death, is called the Love Hotel. Raigyo enhances these themes of random meetings, random sex and random loveby adding random sexual violence to the mix. All of these elements are then played out against an alienating, surreal, and bleak Japan which all combineto make Raigyo a stunning example of 'Pink' cinema.


Synopsis

Sex and murder are rife in the "Love Hotel" where a twisted black-clad woman takes her phone-sex club members and stabs them to death. Set in a bleak 1990s Japan, where sexual alienation and random, often surreal situations provide the elements for RAIGYO's disturbing, erotic story.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not bad, but not great, 25 Sep 2009
By Ellen B. Smith "ellen" (uk) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I have not seen many 'Pink' films, but this one was not bad. It was very calm throughout but violent when your not expecting it which is a good thing, and the story is quite good with an ending I wasn't anticipating. I feel that this director had a story he wanted to show, and that the plot wasn't an excuse to show sex.
However, I have seen many films like this (not all pink), and it's not the best, but for someone who can handle the low budget, slow plot and this genre in general, then it's worth a visit, but don't expect lots of gore, sex and action.
