Love And Crime - Love And Crime - Blu-ray

This expectedly stunning anthology effort from cult director Teruo Ishii has a singular theme-reenacting four of the most notorious sex crime sprees in Japanese history. From "In the Realm of the Senses"-inspiring castrator Sada Abe (Yukie Kagawa) to 19th-century murderess Takahashi Oden (Teruko Yumi) to serial rapist-killer Yoshio Kodaira (Asao Koike) to the Toyokaku Inn Case, no sordid detail is left out. Teruo Yoshida, Rika Fujie also star. 92 min. In Japanese with English subtitles. C/Rtg: NR
