The first film Koji Wakamatsu released after leaving Nikkatsu and instituting his own production company, Wakamatsu Pro, was a testament to the rest of his work, in terms of production, aesthetics and overall approach, including the title. With a minuscule budget in his hands (although the later “Violent Virgin” had an even smaller) and based on an idea he came up with while looking at the rain outside of his company office’s windows that Masao Adachi turned into a proper script, “The Embryo Hunts in Secret” was, nevertheless, a highly profitable venture. This success can be attributed to Wakamatsu’s connection with exhibitors, but also due to its screening at the 1968 Knokke-Le-Zoute Experimental Film Festival in Belgium.
The film begins with a couple making out in the man’s car, before the woman suggests that she would prefer to proceed in somewhere else, and the man offering his place.
