A Tour-De-Force Of Rapey Goodness...

Warning: Spoilers
Norifumi Suzuki's STAR OF David (aka BEAUTIFUL GIRL HUNTER) is a very strong entry in the Nikkatsu violent-pink genre and should be sought out by lovers of sexploit cinema. Unlike some of the other Nikkatsu pink films I've seen - this one has a very polished and professional look to it that makes it stand out amongst other entries. In fact, to my eyes the film resembles the more "mainstream" Toei pinky-violence films but for the slightly more twisted subject matter. This isn't surprising given Suzuki's background in Japanese exploit cinema, helming the equally excellent SCHOOL OF THE HOLY BEAST and SEX AND FURY.

Tatsuya is a handsome young guy who comes into a lot of cash after the "accidental" death of his father. Problem is, his REAL father was a serial rapist and Tatsuya is the product of his mother's rape session. His "surrogate" dad obviously resents Tatsuya's birth and treats him like garbage. Turns out that the penchant for rape must run in the genes - and Tatsuya is no amateur when it comes to the finer points of female abuse and degredation. Eventually Tatsuya's real father comes back into the picture and things go downhill from there...

STAR OF David has a little bit of everything for sexploit fans - Tons of erotically-charged rapes and rope bondage, lots of pantied crotch-shots, incest themes, a hilarious urination scene, some brief necrophilia, implied beastiality - all the things to make a sleaze fan happy. The only draw-back is that the pacing is a bit slow, but even so - STAR OF David is a very solid entry. Pair this one up with a few of Suzuki's other joints and have a sleazy good time...9/10
