I just watched the most awesome movie ever last night. That is, the most awesome film ever if you find extremely over-the-top, clichéd Japanese slasher flicks awesome.

Completely ridiculous plots, character interactions and reactions and events are rife in this film, but they all make the film that much more fun. The gore and violence is extremely funny, as is the dialogue. I’ve only heard the English dubbed dialogue, so I can’t say if it’s an accurate translation or not, but damn, its funny.

Some choice moments include

• finding out about the main characters parents
• the main character getting her arm battered and fried
• someone being sliced into chunks by shurikans
• someone having their skin blasted off by machine gun fire
• chainsaw feet
• the drill bra

The entire film is hilarious and the are so many things in it I’ve seen in various animes. Sort of staple scenes and scenery that seems mandatory in anything from Japan, such as ’school kids walking over bridge’ which is in at least half a dozen animes I’ve seen.

This film actually surpasses Brain Dead as my all-time favourite humour/gore-fest film. Well done Japan, well done.
