Product Description

From the producers of The Machine Girl, Death Trance and Flesh For The Beast. In the near future, the Tokyo Police Corporation is locked in a bloody war with the engineers, genetically modified super-criminals who can bio-fuse their open wounds with weapons, turning self-mutilation into a combat form. Ruka is now the top hunter. With cold-blooded efficiency she cuts through the psychotic engineers and tracks down their home base, a truly bizarre fetish club. Nothing keeps her from her sworn duty to destroy the homicidal mutants and avenge her father s death. Language options: English dubbed or Japanese with English subtitles.

R. Wordsworth

The best movie in the splatter genre!

Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2020

Verified Purchase

There are many reasons to appreciate Tokyo Gore Police. There is, of course, the incredibly talented and exquisitely gorgeous Eihi Shiina, who portrays Ruka, the katana-wielding heroine. There are many scenes in which Shiina's talent and beauty are highlighted, but there are none better than her character's battle with her arch nemesis, Key Man, in an abandoned tunnel. I have watched the battle dozens of times and will continue to do so. It's that amazing! I also want to say kudos to Mr. Itsuji for his portrayal of Key Man -- not just in the fight sequence with the heroine -- but in the entire movie. Well done, Sir.

TGP is a bloodbath to the nth degree that succeeds because the special effects, costumes, and make-up are excellent. For example, it seems that no time, effort, or expense was spared in creating the visuals for the sequences depicting the police lockdown and its horrific consequences. I don't consider these scenes to be dark comedy, but rather grim reminders of the crimes against humanity perpetrated by Hitler's Gestapo and Stalin's NKVD. The movie also includes some of the most outlandish characters that you will ever see. For example, a strip club consists of an assortment of bizarre performers, all of whom are the products of bioengineering. Another example pertains to Shiina's character, who undergoes a strange transformation as TGP reaches its climax. At the mind-blowing conclusion of the movie, the heroine stands ready to protect the city along with her new ally, who is the resultant of some unholy medical procedure.

Tokyo Gore Police is also indicative of the best and / or worst of avant-gardism. The murder of Ruka's father -- that is to say, the explosion at the back of his head and the large flap of scalp waving about afterward -- seems to be based on the autopsy photographs of the JFK assassination. TGP also includes satirical commercials that constitute pertinent social commentary about suicide and self-mutilation. Yoshihiro Nishimura is truly clever for having inserted such avant-gardism and satirical content into the production.

The film score is yet another highlight as it has a certain KIng Crimson feel to it -- circa Larks' Tongues In Aspic Part II. Magnificent!!! It is one of my favorite film scores -- from any genre. Tokyo Gore Police is my favorite movie from the splatter genre, and is one of my favorite movies -- from any genre. TGP is a masterpiece, there aren't enough superlatives to describe it.

Burned disc, won't play

I love this movie, which is why I bought this disc of it. I didn't realize that it was a Mediablasters disc, or that it was a burned disc. A a result, it will not play on my player (my PS4). Very irresponsible to not include such information in the item description.

Exactly what the title promises

Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2021

Verified Purchase

With a title like "Tokyo Gore Police," you expect a certain kind of movie: violent, campy, and over the top. If that's what you're looking for, this film certainly won't disappoint.

The plot, while certainly bizarre, is coherent and well-structured, but that's not really what you're looking for in a film like this. Similarly, it's well-performed (at least in Japanese--I didn't watch the English dub), but that's not what you're looking for either. You're looking for over the top scenes of violence and gore, rendered in quality practical effects rather than substandard CGI. And that's exactly what this film delivers.

Of course this film isn't for everyone, but I assume those who aren't turned off by the title or trailer are exactly the kind of people--much like myself--who'll love it. Honestly, many of the scenes feel like excerpts from my fever dreams, and I mean that in the best way possible.

Worst movie I've ever seen

Reviewed in the United States on June 9, 2019

Verified Purchase

I don't care if they were trying to be "camp" this movie has the worst acting, cinematography, storyline, and directing I've ever had the displeasure of watching. I was hoping for some kind of cool monsters created within a weird storyline, but the absurdity is so over the top, it's like a cartoon, and a poorly made cartoon at that. The voice overs in English add to the horrible experience because they seem to have gone out of their way to find the worst voices possible, perhaps from some cheap Japanese cartoon factory. Wow, at the end, it informed me that more Tokyo Gore Police movies are on the way. God help us all!

Crazy fun watch

If your a Tokyo Shock fan this is perfect! Crazy scenes, kill bill style blood flow, mutations... Years ago I saw this on tv at like 3am. I finally tracked down a copy here and found a few other Tokyo Shock films. Has an anime feel to it if your unfamiliar, but I wouldn't say it's like an anime. Take care

A wildly creative splatterfest that more than lives up to its name

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 3, 2017

Verified Purchase

I make a note of certain films when I browse High Street stores such as CeX, especially the World Cinema section. As this was cheaper on Amazon I thought I’d give it a go.
The film is quite obviously not to be taken seriously, but does have a plot thread regarding the recent privatisation of the Tokyo police force running through it, often showing the increasing violence displayed by these officers for the sake of ‘public safety’. While it does have the satirical edge Robocop has with its occasional advertisements, TGP relies more on the splatter and creativity of its world, with beings known as ‘engineers’ wreaking havoc on its populace, each dismemberment making them more hideously disfigured and connected to whatever implement they may be carrying. The protagonist of the film being directly moulder by these events, it is also a very willingly perverted film, mocking those who indulge in what the West probably are aware of as the seedier side of Japanese culture. Not that any of them get away with it.
If you have a B-Movie collection then give the film a go. If you’re aware of the genre then you probably know roughly what to expect, but if you’re a newcomer to these sorts of things, start lower. Around Maniac Cop should see you right.

Totally agree.

The review complaining about the fact that the lady doesn't wear what she's wearing on the cover is spot on. She totally doesn't.

I have also spent 14 years researching this and she's not a real police women. This film is therefore terrible and should be destroyed like a mutant with a telescope in its bum.

Utterly astonishing!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 4, 2009

Verified Purchase

This dvd you will either rush to buy or hope to avoid for the rest of your life. For the first time since my early teens, and after watching the opening sequence, I began to wonder if I could actually stay the course of watching a horror film. Thankfully, the gore set-pieces were paced throughout the running time.

This isn't a good film and at times, because of unexplained cutting from one scene to another, difficult to follow. Also I didn't recognise one cop when, out of samurai-stylised uniform, he transformed into a total idiot who wrongly thought himself the coolest dude in the city. Characterisation is minimal -there are only really two, our heroine and main villain, everyone else is a cipher at best.

The satirical elements -tv ads for some form of violence such as having chirpy teen girls promoting small knives to use for self-harm- are wincingly effective.

However, the selling point are the surreal images and the over the top gore (often one and the same) and good grief it is over the top, piling image after image you never imagined in your entire life and the one (if you're male) you might fearfully have imagined then you certainly hoped that you never would see.

I feel deeply ashamed of myself to admit that I did enjoy this film and, worse, that I'll watch it again some time in the future. In mitigation, all I can say is that it is a black black unreal comedy which displays a remarkable, albeit appalling, invention, rather than being a witless sadistic slasher. It may not leave you stirred but it will quite likely leave you shaken.

Me Rambling as Usual

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 2, 2010

Verified Purchase

It's set in Tokyo, it has gore in it and it's about the police. So there you have it then. Only you actually get a film which is so much more; very obvious reminders of the Evil Dead, Terminator 2, the Matrix, Kill Bill and Robocop all pop up at different times and I suspect there's plenty of others in there too. It did however manage to feel like a film that was inspired by these, rather than one that simply plagiarised them. A clever idea, an interesting plot, minimal character development and not a lot of dialogue means that there's very little to get in the way of the real point of this film, which is to chop off as many bits as possible, from as many people as possible, in as messy a way as possible. Heads, hands, fingers, arms, legs, feet and 'unmentionables' are all treated in this rather cavalier fashion, as swords, chainsaws, guns and giant scalpels, many of which grow out of peoples' wounds when they get injured, do battle in a near future vision of Tokyo. It's a horror yes, but it's also has significant elements of sci-fi, action and comedy in it too, which are blended in that way that many Japanese films excel at doing. It's not a film that takes itself seriously, it's not a creepy horror and neither does it feel like you're watching a depressing view of a society on the edge of disintegrating either.

I have to say I found it hard to be grossed out by most of this film despite the mayhem going on, as it's really so far over the top that the sheer amounts of blood spraying everywhere actually mitigate against this feeling. However, there were a number of scenes where I did find myself thinking, "oh now, that is a bit different". I have to say that on the whole the average Japanese person appears to have a lot more blood in their body that I do and dreadfully high blood pressure to go with it too. They're also incredible tough! I enjoyed watching this film a lot; it's really very, very silly and as long as you're not the sort of person who gets grossed out by over the top injuries and body modifications in films, you may well find it a lot of fun too. In fact, the longer it goes on the more ridiculous everything gets.

Technically, the picture quality is very good and the film looks well made and doesn't feel cheap. The special effects are by and large excellent. My only criticism is that the producer appears to have got a really good deal on a box of red light bulbs from somewhere and thus they were used in as many scenes as possible. With the amount of on-screen time all the blood and wounds had, I wouldn't have thought red was a colour that would have been in particular demand. This version has both Japanese (with optional English subtitles) and dubbed English audio choices up to 5:1. The subtitles are generally fine, except where they obscure (and basically duplicate) some of a text in a few of the spoof adverts that pop up from time to time. The special features are fairly minimal, but there is a very long trailer if you haven't got time to watch the whole film.

Not a great movie by any standard of "movie". But curiously brilliant all the same.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 11, 2016

Verified Purchase

Ridiculously over-the-top and often hilarious splatter-fest that does not take itself seriously at all and no-one else should either. Not particulalrly well-acted, not big budget, standard messed-up-Japanese girl-seeks-revenge plot. Regardless, Well worth a watch if you like Japanese movie gore fests or even japanese cinema in general. Not for the faint of heart mind.

Three things to love about this movie.

1/ The commercials.

2/ The police dispatcher

3/ Eihi Shiina's legs.

Loved it. A guilty pleasure
