Spooptober Day 17: Strange Circus

Starring: Masumi Miyazaki, Issei Ishida
Written and Directed by: Sion Sono

Strange Circus is fucking insane. There is no way around it. This movie is insane and the only people who should watch it are the same kind of degenerates who watch...well, my movies. In short, if you like my movies, you'll like Strange Circus.

I really don't want to delve too much into the insane antics of Strange Circus because it is a movie that needs to be seen to be believed. I'll give you a rundown of the plot to at least give you a taste of what you're in store for.

The film opens with the story of Mitsuko, a girl whose father stuffs her inside a cello case to watch him and her mother have sex. Then Mitsuko's dad will take her out and put her mother in the cello case and the mother is forced to watch Mitsuko and her father have sex.

It turns out that Mitsuko's story is actually a story fabricated by a famous Japanese author known as Taeko. Taeko is a recluse  who is bound to a wheelchair...except she's not. She likes getting out of her chair and going out in public to listen to people's feedback on her books.

Like I said, I don't want to talk too much about this movie because it really is a wild ride that needs to be seen to be believed. If you're still interested after reading the little bit I've just shared, definitely see Strange Circus.
