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.

Wicked City is not the greatest of films but I am a fan of the director and have this film for my collection, but make no mistake about it, it is borderline hentai If this movie didn't have a solid plot, it'd be hentai. As it is, it's borderline hentai. But what makes it so radically different is that the adult content is weaved in with the plot - there's only one scene of sex that has no pertinence to the story. This movie almost has a film noir feel about it: the crummy solid detective and the female lead at odds with each other. But this movie is surely an adult film and shouldn't be watched by someone under the age of 17, or who is offended by extreme sexual content as there is a partial-rape scene. Other than that the movie is filled with slap-stick comedy and lots of action, a good watch for shock-value entertainment.
