Review of Blind Beast (1969) by Jacky L — 23 Nov 2009
This is like Cronenberg and Miike teaming up to direct Psycho meets In the Realm of the Senses. Quite intense (but not terribly graphic) for 1969. It covers a lot of themes: artistic obsession, sexual power plays, Oedipal relationships, and sadomasochism.
Its handling of these topics is a bit simplistic, but what it lacks in depth it makes up for in freakiness. Michio's studio features some of the most delightfully bizarro set design I've ever seen.
