JAPANESE horror has never been so sickly sweet than with this comical gore fest that repels and delights with equal measure.Featuring a brilliant blend of comic book violence, gore drenched horror and samurai action this modern cult classic tells the story of Ruka – a special forces cop in a privatised police force charged with hunting homicidal mutants known as Engineers. A genetic mystery, these killers have the ability to morph any injury they receive into a deadly and gruesome weapon.
Tokyo Gore Police lives up to its name, pushing the boundaries of moral decency at every turn with a guilty grin. Sex, suicide, rape and violence are all treated with a comic disregard, while every slice and dice produces an endless spray of blood that would make Peter Jackson blush.
Tokyo Gore Police is a horror treat combining the fun of the 1980s with the violent liberties of today. A real treat for those who can stomach it.
Tokyo Gore Police is released in Australia through Madman Entertainment.
Rating: four stars
