privatized and bitter self-mutilation is so casual that advertising is

assassination. Ruka is a cop from a squad who's mission is to destroy
homicidal mutant humans known as "engineers" possessing the ability to

Tokyo Gore Police User Reviews:
Combine
a Paul Verhoeven-style dystopian vision of the future (of the kind seen
in Robocop and Starship Troopers) with the body-shock horror of David
Cronenberg, throw in absolutely tons of OTT cartoonish gore ala Peter
Jackson and some outrageously twisted horror of the kind that only the
Japanese could imagine, and then add every last shred of bizarre
Anime-inspired imagery that you can think of, and the result may look
something like Tokyo Gore Police, a completely bonkers, gore-drenched
epic from director Yoshihiro Nishimura.
Since it would take me
forever and a day to try and catalogue every last moment of gore and
depravity in this film, and even longer to try and describe the plot
(beyond mentioning the fact that the story sees a young woman seeking
revenge for her father's death), I'm not going to bother; suffice to say
that gore-hounds who seek out this freaky film will be treated to
continuous stomach churning images of bodily dismemberment, S & M
themed grotesquery, and scenes of complete random violence from start to
finish, and the fact that the story makes very little sense (at least
until the very end, when plot threads finally start to come together)
should not matter in the least.
Ironically, though, it is this
relentless approach that stops me from giving Tokyo Gore Police a
perfect 10/10. When a film begins with the gore and weirdness levels
stuck firmly at ten, then there is nowhere left for the film to go. For
nearly two hours, the blood sprays, limbs are ripped off, heads roll,
and bodies are torn asunder; whilst this is admittedly lots of fun, it
leaves little room for progression and zero chance of a genuinely
satisfying climax (Oooer missus!).
