Really fun and over-the-top sleazy slasher
kannibalcorpsegrinder30 November 2020
After a series of strange murders, a reporter comes to believe the culprit is the legendary killer who's terrorized the area in the past and sets out to find out the truth, but as the killers' rampage puts him on opposite sides of rival gang groups they all come together to stop the perverted madman's spree

This is a pretty solid sleaze-filled slasher. Much like the other entries, this one tends to get a lot to enjoy with the over-the-top exploits of the dirty, grimy exploitation offerings on display here. Much like the other efforts, the choice of the killers' attire, dressing in black decked bondage gear with a dildo strapped under their face and wielding another one as a main choice of weaponry, gives this a clear indication of where it's going which carries over into the opening scene of him running amok through a dirty massage parlor using the weaponry he does. As well, the constant sexual conduct throughout here with acts blurred out altogether to the wholly viewed acts that are left in and the general atmosphere being around strip clubs and open sexual debauchery. The offensive nature and atmosphere this creates, aided by the use of racial stereotypes done mostly for laughs or the absurd nature everything gets brought into the main plotline As well when this gets to the stalking and slashing aspects of the sleazy storyline it has a lot to like. From the blood-soaked rampage on the massage parlor to the big attack on the strip-club patrons where everyone gets taken out by the killer and the massive rampage of what goes on at the sex celebration being conducted at the end, this one manages to generate some rather impressive and enjoyable set-pieces. Given that this is carried out throughout the film as a whole with the confrontations with the supposedly-skilled ninjas that just come off with a delirious satirical bent to everything, it features a fantastically-cheesy and goofy atmosphere that makes the deaths a lot more impactful and impressive with an aspect of the film that makes them all the more impressive for how they're integrated into the storyline. Given a relentless, fast-paced storyline that never really offers a dull moment and plenty of enjoyable sleaze, this one offers up plenty to like about it. There are a few minor aspects to knock this one down. One of the main ones is the absolutely over-the-top sleaze and grime that may not be for everyone. Being as open with the excessive body fluids and sexual antics this one is quite free with as the concepts at play here offer up the kind of platform for those to be included which can be off-putting. Not only is the frequency a potential issue but it's also the concept of these as the highly-sexual nature of what's going on with the storyline here has the potential to offend even though that should be a given going into the third film in this particular franchise. As well, there's also a highly underwhelming and somewhat confusing storyline about the secondary reporter getting the storyline which doesn't offer much in the way of impressive or likable antics. It's cliched and doesn't add much beyond a one-note joke that wears itself out rather quickly, but beyond that, there's not much to bring this down.

Rated Unrated/NC-17: Extreme Graphic Violence, Extreme Graphic Language, Full Nudity, and strong sexual scenes and themes.
