Film Review of Flowers of Flesh and Blood

Generally speaking, it is a passionate science and education film. A man dressed in an ancient Japanese samurai costume and wearing makeup anesthetized a woman with a rigorous attitude of making works of art, dismembered her into various parts with large and small knives and scissors, and classified and filed. Hands to hands, feet to feet, arms to arms, legs to legs, neatly arranged, placed on both sides of the woman's naked torso. Then cut off the woman's head; Finally, I gouged out her eyeball and licked it gently. This is a science and education film, because I always think I want to dismember a person, as long as there is one.

A knife is enough. Now I know that only a knife is not perfect. Sharp scissors can easily cut tendons, nerves, blood vessels and so on. Different parts also need knives with different lengths to ensure the neatness of the incision, so the technical content of this work is actually very high.

In addition, a scientific dismemberment should obviously be carried out in an orderly manner, from the end to the main body, from zero to the whole, just like the order demonstrated in the film. I remember when I dismembered my hands and arms, every time I cut them off, the woman's head would struggle to turn, a close-up of a slightly open red lip.

At the end of the film, the Japanese samurai showed all his collections to the camera: a large group of rotting heads and residual limbs covered with white maggots and staggered on plants.

Although this episode is the most disgusting and shocking work, it is of great significance in the history of the development of Japanese B-level horror films. Subsequent Japanese classic blood-spraying films, such as Love Cut Skin and Killer I, have directly inherited this split feature and carried it forward.

The film also uses the improved propaganda method of fake snuff film, claiming that the film is a real murder video obtained by the director Hino Hideyoshi before, and it cannot be easily made public. At the end of the film, criminals continue to look for the next victim in the street, with comments: the above content was shot by an 8mm camera. According to the content analysis, there were at least two murderers, and it is believed that a considerable number of women were killed. It is said that the police have launched a search in the dark, and in the near future, an unprecedented murder case in the history of Japanese crime will be discovered.

As a bloody film with a strong flavor, this film has also become the first restricted film in the history of Japanese film and television. The title of the film clearly indicates that the film contains a lot of cruel abuse scenes, and it is forbidden to sell or rent it to people under the age of 15, which is also an eye-catching topic at that time.

After the filming of this episode, the working group "deliberately" illegally abandoned the sticky bed covered with flesh and blood in the film in the river, which made the nearby police station think that a bloody case had occurred, which caused a certain sensation and was also the topic of a series of enthusiastic supporters.

When the film was later circulated and released privately in Europe and America, Charlie Sheen, a famous American actor and a bad boy who likes to spray blood and heavy taste, couldn't believe his eyes and insisted that it was a real snuff film. Later, it was reported that he reported the incident to the FBI and conducted an investigation. The truth of this rumor was not tested at that time, but became another classic topic in the mouth of a series of fanatical supporters.

PS: Charlie Sheehan, who comes from a family of entertainers, is the hero of Pai, Wall Street and other films. Because of the damage caused by scandals and drug abuse, he finally returned to the road of B-level horror movies.

Many friends said that the film Flower of the Flesh was shot in the whole process of a girl being dismembered alive, and the content is true. In other words, a girl was really dismembered in front of the camera. I feel creepy.

But when I finished reading it, I came to the conclusion that this is absolutely not true.

Reason 1: It is absolutely impossible for a woman to live until she is beheaded. Women's hands and legs have been cut off, and the arteries and blood vessels in their hands and legs must have been cut off. Women will soon die of dragon blood, and it will never last long.

Reason 2: The color of plasma is bright red, which is also impossible. Everyone who has donated blood knows that the blood is dark red, while the blood in the film is bright red. Of course, the blood in arterial blood vessels is bright red, but the bleeding mode of arterial blood vessels is jet, which can't flow out as calmly as in the film.

Reason 3: The murderer hid a large number of bodies at home, and the stench of the bodies must be "thyme". Neighbors will definitely call the police because of the stench, and things will soon be exposed. It is impossible to kill so many people. Of course, it is also possible that the killer lives in a house in the suburbs, which is another matter. From the perspective of criminal psychology, the murderer should dispose of the body quickly and never walk around the house. From the perspective of abnormal psychology, abnormal psychology is intermittent, and when he is awake, he will automatically turn to the category of criminal psychology, so it is unlikely to leave the body at home. Leaving the body at home as a trophy is something that only people in horror movies can do, and the possibility of it happening in reality is almost zero.

Reason 4: The last pink worm that crawled out of the corpse's mouth can be seen by anyone with a little common sense as an earthworm. Imagine that the maggots on the corpse are the masterpiece of flies, which makes sense. How did a large number of earthworms come from? Are they also "airborne soldiers" like maggots? Besides, do earthworms eat corpses? This also remains to be seen.

Reason 5: If it is a record of the whole process of killing, then the lens must be recorded mostly: long lens, panoramic view. However, the traces of lens cutting in this film are obvious, obviously considered in advance, and the traces of the director are very heavy. Moreover, for example, when the murderer opened the "corpse room", the traces of lens assembly were obvious, and the editing points were also obvious, so the possibility of "live video recording" was very small.

Reason 6: The murderer covered the woman's body with a white cloth. The woman's "three points" were well protected during the whole process of dismemberment, and there was no dew point lens at all, which was very puzzling. It is understandable if the actress asks the director to protect her private parts. But please think about the scene at that time, killing and dismembering. How can we consider protecting the third victim? This is incredible!

To sum up, the author thinks this is a horror film with average shooting level, which is similar to the chainsaw series. It is unlikely to be a "live video". The above views are purely a family view. Smart netizens can definitely draw their own conclusions based on the film. If you are willing to communicate, I am all ears!
