This film when viewed on an old vhs tape is really very convincing. Hardly any dialogue spoken and just lashings of the old ultra violence. A girl is kidnapped and tied to a table then a guy in samurai gear proceeds to hack her to bits.
Then out comes the DVD release with a good quality picture and the effect kind of gets lost. It's looks quite phoney and takes away a bit of the "is it real ?, isn't it real?" factor of watching on low quality video.
If you're into gore movies, watch it on video first, then catch it on dvd if you can, just to see how all the effect were done (theres a making of documentary on the DVD).
