Splatter: Naked Blood (1996)

Very bizarre film about a girl talking to her cactus through a virtual reality headset and killing people after being given a drug. Surreal, hilarious, and disturbing at times, this film takes a long time to get to the really good stuff, but it's worth it. Especially love the scene of the girl eating her own nipple! Great music and a perfect atmosphere coupled with typically wonderful Japanese acting. Honestly, the film doesn't actually make any conventional sense whatsoever, though it's probably not supposed to. Also, the film isn't actually that gory or shocking if you've seen stuff like Dead Alive, Premutors, Riki-Oh, and others. However, if you just want a bizarre movie that takes itself way too seriously, then this is definitely something to watch. You may not love it as much as I did but I personally thought it was somewhat brilliant. Definitely worth at least one watch if you've already managed to surf on here and read this review...

This movie starts out very VERY slow, but when the action finally gets started, it's a little had to follow. I couldn't understand why some of the events were taking place, and a lot of events happened before they were explained, making them sort of confusing. The only thing it really has going for it is the massive amount of blood/gore it has, although most times the special effects are lacking. Blood looks like red Kool-Aid. Skin tearing sounds like somebody is stepping on a pile of sticks. Again, the story has a sort of amateur feel to it, like the writer didn't take a long time to perfect it. I feel like it could be a much better movie if the effects were done better and more time was taken on the script. I honestly wish I hadn't watched it, not because of the gore, but because I feel that i wasted 90 minutes of my life. If you like extremely gory movies, this is for you, if not, stay away.

I'd expected this movie to be over the top goorfest, but has just enough body decapitation to satisfy the most demented fans. A scientist invents a new pain killer to use on his mother's patient. The rest is pretty much how the side effects really take in effect! Make plans on watching this movie late night when your body is numb and relaxed to a point that a tranquilized horse can't move. Don't bring any bed time snacks while watching this flick because you'll end up vomiting in your own bed and vomit some more. It isn't a horror film but more off a shock value, and it does shock indeed. Make sure you pick up the Discotek's R1 USA DVD.

I should start off by saying that I am a huge gorehound. I like movies that take things to the extreme. I heard of this movie through watching the infamous Guinea Pig series. A person from IMDb specifically told me if I liked that series that I should love Naked Blood. After a few months of searching for this title I finally came across it. What I thought was going to be a straight splatter fest turned into a rather psychological film that just happened to have some really disturbing elements to it.The storyline is not really what is in the forefront of the movie, more or less, it was the atmosphere and moodiness of the film (and of course the gore), but I will give a brief description anyway. A 17 year old boy genius has created a serum that if injected will turn pain into pleasure. He decides to test it on three girls and the results are exactly what you think they might be.This film is so much more then that brief description, though. There is a lot of bizarre elements to the film that in one viewing couldn't possibly be understood. Hell, I don't even know if multiple viewings could sum up what the meaning of this film is. If you have seen this movie, you should know what I am talking about. If you haven't seen this then just watch it for yourself.In my opinion, this was a great movie. Easily becomes one of my favorites. If you can find it, buy it. 9/10
