In bob's review of Yorio: Samurai Zombie,, he commented that he's not much for films that serve only as vehicles for gore FX. A couple of years ago I might have countered him on this - even gone so far as to call him "a curmudgeon" (as he himself put it) - but as we come to the end of another year, saturated with overt-the-top Japanese gore, sex and weirdness, I have to admit I'm starting to agree with him. This style of filmmaking is starting to seem a little flimsy and unless someone comes along and transplants all this bizarro stuff into a decent screenplay with better execution, I predict that films like Samurai Princess are going to quickly stop being such crowd-pleasers.
