The Dominator reviewsThe Bedroom
Distributed by
Kyoko is a member of a club : "The Bedroom".
Kyoko is mourning the death of her sister who died when she took too much of the drug. She is trapped in a stale relationship with a husband who works as a computer programmer, and is rarely home. He himself, occasionally takes the drug to relieve the stress, but is that wise? She goes to work in "The Bedroom" where depraved and disgusting things happen, and soon the women in the club are being killed and mutilated one by one. One day she doesn't take the drug so she can see what sort of men visit the club, and she seeks to discover who the mysterious Mr. Takano is, who looks over the room like "Big Brother" from George Orwell's 1984. She begins to suspect her lover, Kei, of the murders but for her, the truth is to prove far more disturbing. The questions are endless : Confused? Then watch "The Bedroom" and things should be a bit clearer. Be warned : The film includes some very explicit sex and fetish scenes, including Kyoko filming herself while having sex with her lover. Director Sato Hisayasu's film is an eclectic study of subcultures, festishism, drug use, prostitution and pornography. At the same time, both sensual and unsettling, "The Bedroom" plots a nightmare landscape that is strangely attractive. This is Pink Cinema at its most stylish. ![]() Review (C) Dominic Robinson, 1996.Check out Screen Edge 's home page !
