Plot – Spoilers:
A Japanese AV star Mai Tsurumi – who stood out in the clutter of her industry – went missing a few years back. Tsurumi had earned fans for her contrasting elegance while performing in niche fetishes like menstrual porn.

Now a couple years later, a female journalist and her crew are making a documentary on the missing actress. Their interest in her case is mostly based on a rumour that Tsurumi disappeared into a snuff film that was later sent to her studio.

Celluloid Nightmares with its tight running time of just over an hour is a gripping watch despite you having probably watched plenty from the genre, including Daisuke Yamanouchi’s other works.

This movie was really interesting! I didn’t expect the ending at all, I was pleasantly surprised. I think what I really appreciate about this, is that it’s not TOTALLY mindless gore and sex just for the sake of…mindless gore and sex. There’s actually a good plot, and suspense. Really enjoyed it~

It was pretty good, the plot-twist at the end got me ngl. But it’s a shame that every gore scene is pixelizated.

Somehow Japanese women who are in adult industry look very decent and homei, as if they are going to bake a cake once they finish funking everyone in the movie.

Ok, I’m confused. This website has the movie released in 1999 but IMDB has 1988…. July 1988. Are these two different movies?

Um…. Yeah, the world of menstrual porn is tough.

This is a great ad for the creation of Sex Workers’ Union. Porn bosses are notorious assholes and hey, a girl’s gotta make a living right? Union arbitration could have stopped this senseless and absurd atrocity.

Seriously though, this is a “fun” watch that despite everything about it, somehow keeps your interest for nearly an hour and 4 minuets.
