The story is set in the year of 2001 in a prison owned by a major company. A new prisoner sees his friends being harassed and killed by the guards and seeks his revenge.
Riki-Oh is the kind of movie where you can see a dog get split in half by a kick, and where people punch through stomachs with superhuman strength. One major downside with the movie is that it's so obvious when a doll is used because they look kind of cheep. That aside, some effect are great, like when a fat guy gets his stomach ripped open and blood is gushing out. It's a B-martial arts movie where body parts are getting torn off, bodies are exploding and bad guys being pushed down meat blenders. If the practical effects just had been a little better it would have been one of the most disgusting films ever, but now it ranges from decent to terrible, but terrible in a hilarious way.
Nothing too serious, but fun if you're in the mood for it.
Genre: Action/Comedy
