Watashi o okashite

About This Movie

Watashi o okashite is a fascinating early pink film by Kazuo 'Gaira' Komizu, though the director remains shrouded in mystery. The atmosphere is both provocative and unsettling, with a tonal shift that veers into surreal territory. The pacing is deliberately languid, allowing the viewer to absorb its themes of desire and alienation, punctuated by practical effects that add a gritty texture. Performances feel raw and unrefined, which might not appeal to everyone but definitely fits the film's distinct vibe. It’s in that blend of eroticism and discomfort that the film finds its uniqueness, and it's a testament to the early explorations within the pink genre, showcasing the experimental edge of the time.

Watashi o okashite doesn't have a ton of information out there, which makes it a bit of a hidden gem. Its scarcity adds to its allure among collectors, especially those interested in the evolution of pink cinema. Previous formats are hard to track down, and this film often flies under the radar in discussions, which can make finding a copy a real treasure hunt. If you're into the more obscure entries in the genre, this one might just pique your interest.
