The Mystery of Rampo poster
7.1

Edogawa Rampo is a writer whose latest work is censored by the government, deemed too disturbing and injurious to the public to be allowed to be published. However, after burning his drafts, his publisher shows him a newspaper with an account of events just like his forbidden story. As the film progresses, fantasy and reality intermingle in a tale that draws heavily on influences from Poe and Stoker's Dracula. The film's strongly Expressionistic direction skillfully combines a variety of media (animation, computer-generated imagery, grainy black-and-white fast film stock, color negatives) for artistic effect.

10.0

In this sizzling escapade, three irresistible vixens—Dump, Hip, and Bump—deliver a daring, alluring masterclass in mischief. Dump, a martial arts maven, combines lethal moves with an untamed sensuality, while Hip captivates with her razor-sharp wit and magnetic allure. Meanwhile, Bump’s sultry charm turns even the staunchest hearts to mush. Under Masako Sakamoto's provocative orders, they plunge into hedonistic debauchery at the “Dream National Assembly.” First, they seductively manipulate sauna sirens into high-stakes bets that pay off handsomely. Next, they incite wild, erotic revelry at a ghostly bar, unleashing an intoxicating tide of risqué abandon. Finally, their provocative presence ignites a deluxe key club with unbridled, seductive intensity, transforming scandal into a lush celebration of desire.
