3.0 out of 5 stars Skinemax goes ultraviolent, October 21, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Beautiful Hunter (Dub) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The beautiful and frequently topless Makiko Kuno plays an assassin raised by a deviant blind priest to be a warrior of God. But the killings are political, the priest works for the mob and two magazine photographers stumble across the whole mess. One gets killed, the other escapes only to be stalked by the beautiful assassin. The plot is pretty familiar and the film is shot in the style common to Japanese movies of this type: lots of monochrome, cool blues and bled out greens to suggest an arid, sterile moral wasteland. The blend of Gonin-esque ultraviolence and Skinemax gratuitous nudity makes it entertaining, though on a slightly silly level. And Kuno, in tight mini skirts and high heels, packing heat... Ouch!
