I watched this film thinking it would be another gore fest like the Guinea Pig series and in some ways it is. Yes, there are disturbing sequences of mutilation, including the much talked about nipple slicing scene. But, there is an intelligence to this movie that lifts it out of the run-of-the-mill splatter territory. The plot involves a teenage boy genius who has invented a mystery potion he names My Son. His mother is a scientist performing contraceptive experiments on three different women, he spikes a harmless contraceptive drug with My Son and films the results, along the way falling in love with one of the subjects. This is an interesting and intelligent movie, while some of the more out-there sequences will put off many it is a must see for people looking for something different.

Sato's extension of his earlier GENUINE RAPE is an incredible transgressive horror movie.A teenage boy sabotages his mother's anti-pregnancy experiments by spiking the test injections with his own endorphin called "Myson".Myson is his own concoction which turns pleasure into pain.The greater the pain,the greater the pleasure.Without wanting to spoil any surprises,i can warn the more weak hearted that there are some shocking scenes (a woman eats her own vagina lips with a knife and fork).But for viewers up to it,it's a fascinating,intelligent dissection of a movie that unwaveringly follows it's own premise no matter where it leads (like prime David Cronenberg for example).And it's a top notch exploitation classic. Sato is a very prolific director who's made countless movies (usually in the areas of sex and violence) since the 80's-but as far as i know,only this and THE BEDROOM are available subtitled in English. Did i mention the Virtual Reality cactus?

This movie has a strange softness to it between scenes of intense violence. It is sur-real and over the top.

It is a dream-like movie.

Hisayasu Sato added a real story to this one, well a start and a end of a story, just not a beginning and a finish..but who cares?

Do people watch these for the story or the shock value? Shock value here is about 90%.The Story is interesting but has holes, at 78 minutes that is not surprising. The effects are amazing. This is a movie for gore fans and those that like "weird but inoffensive." Not really worth looking for unless you are a collector.. but if you find it do watch it.

One strange flaw was the over the top sound effects, I have never heard a nipple "crunch" until this movie.

There are some films I've put off viewing for a long time as I've been informed they contain material that is simply too strong, too offensive to be tolerated. One of these films is "Naked Blood". Imagine my surprise, then, when I finally sat down to watch the recent US release of this cult movie last night and found the film to be both intelligent and well-made. Yes, it contains some graphic scenes but they need to be put in context with what else is contained within the horror genre. While some of the scenes in "Naked Blood" are, I believe, unique, there's nothing here that will corrupt the viewer or overwhelm him / her with its content. In terms of violence, the bloodshed in "Naked Blood" is no worse than many other underground horror films.

What "Naked Blood" delivers is a thoughtful, almost fly-on-the-wall, unfolding of events as a young doctor's son, Sadao Abe, creates an antidote to pain. When he tampers with his mother's experiment by including his special pain-relieving fluid with her new contraceptive, things go very wrong, very fast.

I knew details of most of the horrific scenes before I watched "Naked Blood" but the movie did contain a few surprises. The effects work is excellent but the film succeeds because of its atmosphere and performances rather than elements of "gross out" horror.

Even with its bizarre ending, I enjoyed "Naked Blood" and would recommend it to genre fans.

7 out of 10.
