Kinbaku: Flower
Kinbaku: Flower (Kinbaku: Hana no Shô) is an erotic film written and directed by Naoyuki Tomomatsu in 2016. Kinbaku deals with the ancient Japanese form of artistic bondage that involves tying a person up, making them unable to move, with ropes made of burlap or linen.
In Naoyuki Tomomatsu’s film, this technique will be used by an angry husband who will turn to a BDSM expert to take revenge on his wife and her lover.
The cast includes Yume Aihara, Ryô Asagiri, Iku Haruka, Mai Miori, and Yoshitaka Mizuno.
Herschell Gordon Lewis’ BloodMania
Herschell Gordon Lewis’ BloodMania (2017) is the latest effort by Herschell Gordon Lewis (Blood Feast, 2000 Maniacs), the “Godfather of Gore” who also appears here as narrator.
Consisting of four segments, Herschell Gordon Lewis’ BloodMania is a horror/splatter anthology film directed by Herschell Gordon Lewis, Kevin Littlelight, and Melanie Reinboldt.
It is the last film to be directed by the famous U.S. film director and producer, who passed away on September 26, 2017. The film was released after his death.
Faith Amantea, Stuart Bentley, Carl Bishop, Caroline Buzanko, Peter Cameron, Donovan Cerminara, and Jewelle Colwell star.
eROTik 2
The necrophilia extreme film eROTik 2 is the sequel/reboot to TetroManiac: eROTik (2019), a film loosely based on the story of Jeffrey Dahmer (1960 – 1994), the U.S. serial killer known as “The Milwaukee Cannibal.”
eROTik 2 is directed by Slade Wilson (6 Songs, XXX Darknet: Red Lips) under the supervision of Domiziano Cristopharo (House of Flesh Mannequins, Doll Syndrome), the director of the first chapter (2019).
The story of eROTik 2 is linked to that of the 2019 film by taking up its situations and characters but, above all, by delving into the sick mind of the protagonist who, thanks to his rituals, manages to bring back to life one of the corpses he hides in his house but the consequences will be devastating.
The film stars Ahmet Karthal, Angela del Regno (TetroManiac: Confessions of a Necrophiliac), William Connor, Antonio Mocciola, Patrizia De Rosa, and Carmin Gregor. The special effects are by Kevin Capurro (6 Songs, XXX Darknet: Red Lips).
