    Shogun’s Joy Of Torture – Movie Review:

    One of numerous ‘torture anthology’ films made by the inimitable Teruo Ishii, 1968’s Shogun’s Joy Of Torture presents three separate short stories set in the feudal era, all of which are joined by some obvious thematic elements. On their own, these stories are strong stuff, and when combined, they make for an even grislier viewing experience, albeit a very nicely made one. The production values in the film, like the other ‘torture’ films that Ishii     ...
