Taki Renzaburo: [narrating] We live in an era when our cities are armed with steel and concrete. Computers and electronics barricade our minds. It doesn't change the fact that there exist a lot of strange phenomenon, bizarre beyond reason, or logic. Most folks just don't see them. That's because we cling to order - to any tiny happiness that comes our way, and we bust our humps to blind ourselves with our desires and our pleasures. There's a world of darkness out there, beyond time or space... a ...

Alternate Versions
The 1993 UK VHS by Manga Entertainment was cut by 1 minute and 48 seconds by the BBFC. The sequences that were cut were:- All shots of Jin's hand forcibly touching Makie's vagina, as well as the shot of her hair beginning to rise upwards to trap him.
- Makie being forcefully deepthroated by a tentacle, and the first shot of the energy beams emerging from her breast.
- Most of Taki watching the visualization of Makie's gang-rape at the clinic, including two voiceovers (one from Mr. Shadow, the other from Mayart).
- Taki witnessing Makie's rape at the dilapidated hideout, and most of his ensuring conversation with Mr. Shadow.

In a world where humans which we live in and a dimension called The Black World roamed by shape-shifting beings whom have been living secretly among us for many years. There has been a peace treaty assigned between the two worlds yet a Black World gang called The Radicals want to stop that treaty from ever happening as their target is a wise ancient yet sex crazed 200 year old peace keeper Giuseppei Mayart who is the one to make the treaty is protected by two top agents named Taki who is your basic human agent and Makie who is a sexy black world agent with unique claws as the treaty must be protected.
Nasty, bizarre and exciting Japanese animated horror fantasy from Yoshiaki Kawajiri who later gave us the classics "Ninja Scroll" and "Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust". It's a highly overlooked but very cool erotic anime movie with sex, gore and action including a nice sounding plot that goes together with them, the animation is also very nice here and Makie is one gorgeous toon girl.
This is one sexy and bloody H.P. Lovecraft-esquire piece of animation from Japan not to be missed and definitely not for the kids.
