A funny trash directed by a controversial filmmaker Takashi Miike. Now, after seen it, if someone ask me, how does the true schismatics look like - I'll obviously recommend him to see this film.

Remarkable example of fun with knives.
The film is based on Hideo Yamamoto's manga about a boy, that likes to cry a lot, mostly because in his deep childhood he became the witness of the rape of his beloved girl. And now, totally insane and under control of yakuza he is killing people....
But it's all not about him, but on Kakihara, a sadomasochist yakuza enforcer who enjoys giving and receiving pain of an extreme perverted way....
Ah, the whole film is about grim humor and demonstration of scenes of violence. For exmaple the first scene is a burlesque to superheroes. A house. Inside a man beats a woman and then starts to rape her. Ichi, in a costume of a superhero climb the balcony. A viewer decides that he will resque her, but Ichi just watch. The man, feeling someone is looking at him, heretically enter the balcony, but th Ichi is gone. And left his sperm on the cute geranium flowers in it. From this sperm the name of the film appeared....
