Movie Reviews of Shocking Asia
Movie Review: An Interesting FIlm
Summary: 4 Stars
First off, this DVD is noticably missing some scenes. But because there are no known full-cut versions other than maybe a VHS. This DVD will have to do until we get a better version.
This film explores the many wonders that reside in Asia. Some shockings, Some plain nonsense. We are treated to visuals of what the Asian people dine on. Wether it's bats and other animals being slaughtered, actual dead bodies, taboo mutilation. And a sequence shown in graphic detail where a man gets a sex change. Probably the most disturbing scene in the entire film. It's sure to give male viewers nightmares. A sex museum is also explored in this film. I wouldn't really call it shocking. The movie has more of an educational feel to it. And must be seen by fans of this genre. The sequel isn't too bad either.
Of course it mild compared to others, Like Faces Of Death or Traces of Death. If you're seeking a casual and interesting film, you will enjoy this. But if you're seeking a more hardcore subject matter, Look for the above mentioned titles.
This film won't disapoint those that are familiar with this genre.
