If you are looking for the most disturbing movies in the cinema, it is likely that some of Google’s suggestions are “Saló, or the 120 days of Sodom”, “A serbian film”, among other vomitful but applauded proposals. However, there is one that few know and that will surely keep you on the edge of your seat, in addition to causing you to gag more often than you think.
Is about “Guinea pig 2”, the controversial film directed by Japanese director Hideshi Hino and released in 1985. In the following lines, learn more details about the feature film.
What is it about?
“A woman walking home late at night is attacked by an unknown assailant who renders her unconscious with chloroform,” states the synopsis shared by MUBI.
“Guinea pig 2″, very famous among fans of Japanese cinema, brings us closer to a seemingly quiet night. Like any other day, a young woman walks towards her house without anticipating that she is about to be intercepted by a sadistic contemporary samurai.
After approaching the girl in the street, the subject takes her to a dungeon, where he seeks to turn her into a “flower of blood and flesh”, through a meticulous dismemberment process. In his twisted perspective, his only goal is to position torture and mutilation in a work of art.
This terrifying narrative is enhanced by violent scenes, perhaps only comparable to snuff-type productions (short footage of murders, suicides and other true crimes).
The FBI had to investigate its origin
According to the Screen Rant portal, in 1991, the writer and film critic Chris Gore gave a copy of “Guinea pig 2” to charlie sheenwho was horrified by what he saw. In fact, he believed that he was watching footage of a real murder, so he did not hesitate to send the film to the FBI.
Agents kept Sheen’s file and proceeded to open production and distribution investigations. However, what the feds found was that all of Hino’s bloodthirsty proposal had its origins in special effects. Thus, the stir was left in a disturbing anecdote.
