Sinopsis(1)
An infamous manga artist received an unmarked parcel in the mail. In this mysterious package was one 8 mm film, 54 still pictures and a 19 page letter. The letter told the artist that a horrible crime was committed by a person of aesthetic paranoia in a very secret place. The 8mm film shows a horrifying descent into pure madness as a psychotic slowly dismembers a defenseless woman and then adds her to his collection. The artist quickly turned the film, stills and letter over to the police for investigation. Haunted by the images he witnessed, he decided to make a semi-documentary film based on what he saw.

Given that the series is almost 30 years old, I have to acknowledge its certain potential for its time. However, in the present, where boundaries of what is portrayed are pushed even further, this samurai-armored killer is simply one film among many, lacking any significant standout features. The absence of a plot doesn't help either; we are basically stuck in a room the entire time, except for the opening scene when the murdered girl is abducted. As I mentioned, with a stationary camera, this whole thing would sound different.
