Assault! Jack the Ripper
A couple who find that killing is the only thing that works, followed all the way down.
A mild cafe couple run over a hitchhiker and discover the killing has done something for them that nothing else has, so they go looking for the feeling again. This is Nikkatsu's Roman Porno line at its most ero-guro, and Yasuharu Hasebe follows the premise as far as it goes with real, ugly craft. It is sustained sexual violence against women staged to arouse, and worth knowing before you press play.
Well made, hard to sit through, and no casual watch.
