High demand for tattooed geisha generates an entire industry for their "production". Europeans pay more for tattooed beauties. Against this background, and considering the gorgeous tattooed women develop the history of confrontation between two highly skilled masters of tattoo.
You just can't have the romance and the happy-go-lucky films without there being a polar opposite, a negative to the positive. Inferno of Torture is a torture-porn blood party, with naked bodies covered with tattoos getting suspended and cut up. There's a story here somewhere under the humiliation of young, beautiful women but the dark subject matter definitely has the center stage.
Directed by Terri Ishii who has been called the Godfather of J-sploitation, a genre of films mostly best watched in good company due to how ridiculous they are, though Inferno has other things going for it than just the gore. The Eastmancolor looks amazing and fits the theme perfectly with red, glowing blood flowing down the glistening skin. Obviously not for everyone but in its own sick, deranged genre it's a gem.
Genre: Crime/Drama/Horror
