Wait 30secs. Movie still not playing? Click the "Can't Watch?" tab.
Click this first
A new tab will open and a basic security check like a captcha will be performed. After completing the check, close that page and return here.
Refresh this page. Wait 30 secs. The movie should load and you can just hit play.
If it still doesn't play, Click here to watch the movie
The movie should now start playing in a new tab of your browser or begin downloading to your device. This option has the minor disadvantage that English-language movies with optional subtitles in the movie player will not include these subs with this method.
The new system here has been designed keeping in mind even people with low internet speeds sub-8mbps. Even if you have a really bad connection, you should still be able to watch the movie without any issues if you:
Start the movie. Pause it. Wait for 30-45 seconds. Start playing again.
This 'Can't Watch' method really only works if it's your specific device/browser that's interfering with the player. There is no real advantage of speed here. Or if there is a temp network glitch or read lag from the server disk.
If you're still having problems, try using 'Incognito mode' in your browser. On iPhones, especially older ones, use Chrome instead of Safari. Might help.
IMPORTANT: Please make sure that the newly opened tab is not an ad popup asking you to download some software or whatever. Close any such popups and don't download any software - those are ads. Nothing is needed to be done by you other than to complete the security check which is often automated.

Plot – Spoilers:
Scrap metal mutant humans!
A man inserts an iron pipe into his thigh after carving it open. The result shocks him and he runs into the streets wildly, where he is hit by a car. The driver of the car and his girlfriend hide the body in the woods and celebrate it with some outdoors sex. But soon, the driver develops a metal pimple which bursts gore when he tries to examine it. This is just the beginning of his descent into a spiral of paranoia and transformation. The first guy also turns up for a final confrontation. In between though, you have some delightful scenes of metal mutation set to some nice industrial music – like when the girlfriend develops a metal-snake-cock and cavorts around before sodomizing the guy, and some cool stopmotion-type scenes set in suburban streets.
At just over an hour, this is a surreal experience that most can afford, even if the bizarre, under normal circumstances, pisses you off.
one of the greatest body horror movies ever, an absolute classic! 10/10, I love everything about this movie. it reminds me a lot of the setting of eraserhead bc even though it is filmed in a real place, it doesn’t really feel like its taking place in reality. its like the “uncanny valley” of settings, kinda like we recently saw in The Substance
Drill dick
Interesting filming techniques combined with cool stop motion tricks and a bizarre story meld together for a unique movie experience. Although I thought the film was very good, I’m NGL – I had a splitting headache by the end. I’m looking forward to watching the next 2 “Tetsuo” films but I won’t be able to watch them all in a row. 3 and a half stars.
meh.
6/10
Classic. Hadn’t seen this in over a decade. The stop motion scenes are top notch…. well…Tetsuo, it’s been a pleasure. I’ll watch you again in another 10 years, God willing.
been meaning to watch this one for a while, not quite sure i understood most of what i just watched but i enjoyed it. very artistic. soundtrack is also really good
marvel built a multimillion dollar movie franchise around the wrong Iron Man in my opinion
MFING IRONMANNNN woopwoop. you just cannot go wrong with the title IRONMANNNN. the song, the comic, the mcu og filck. BOOM. this film is chefs kiss of bizzarro jap filcks. Miike fanboys this film fr fr. AND POST.
me and who
That movie is unique, i never saw anything like it!! Great body horror cult!
This movie was pretty Metal!
watched this while drunk 10/10 ;p
Huh… it was interesting?
lovit
I’m guessing Shinya Tsukamoto watched Eraserhead . . . A LOT.
an absolute banger. would watch again high on acid
this movies ass
Wait i remember reading a manga with the same name huh
This isn’t Marvel 😨
Awesome, loved the gore
Very cool and weird loved the soundtrack too
this was a deez nuts moment
bro really decided that fucking his girlfriend was more important than fixing the giant chunk of scrap metal in his arm lmao
Started to watch this and 15 mins into it I turned off. Didnt get it, made no sense to me. More a sci-fi theme than anything, just not to my taste. Yet to see a good Japanese film eventhough I have seen a few here. Maybe they just make crap films?
You want a taste of my sewage pipe?
Very surreal. I didn’t get what was going on half the time but it was very well done. The stop-motion was a nice touch as well
7/10
okay changed my mind !! i thought it was funny when that lady had a mf iron strap on, i will watch this again but skip the scary bits <3 hope ur having a nice day queen ! drink water, eat some food n remember to have some time away from ur screens bubs <3
bro i deadass nearly cried when he shoved that metal thing in his leg :(( why have i come to this site
This is a romance and you can’t tell me otherwise. Some of the best outsider-art cinema ever.
Awsome and Visceral, the weirdest cinema I’ve ever seen
Well, that was a…different. To say the least.
