swinggold A shy female office worker is attacked and raped in her apartment elevator by an unknown attacker. After already realizing all of the women at her job are having sex with their male superiors, she gives into her boss's seductions and discovers she's now become even more turned on by having multiple one-night stands with anonymous men especially when taken by force. As a devoted porn connoisseur, I was happy to find this title by accident. I normally refuse to watch a foreign movie that has no subtitles but this excellent bit of Japanese vintage soft porn is very easy to decipher. I don't condone rape and I abhor watching it in movies but this obviously takes a misogynistic look at the subject as if to say the woman should be enjoying it which is even more offensive to women but this is after all, porn. The story seems obvious: After being attacked, now she's having a sexual awakening and, despite never reporting the rape, is accosted by several of her male superiors at work and strangers on the street and in bars but she's just going through the motions trying to re-imagine and re-attain the high she got when she was first sexually ravished by her attacker. The sex is very strong and straight-forward, typical for a 70s soft core. (The Japanese take their porn very seriously to the point that it's a very mainstream part of their culture even today). The cinematography is excellent which is a hallmark of the 70s era when porn was still being filmed like regular movies instead of how porn is made today like a cheap webcam show in some motel room. There's a real plot which I wish I could fully understand but for the most part you get the gist by what you can see. It's vintage 70s. If you appreciate a good soft core like me, then you'll love this.

a_baron Actually, contrary to the somewhat surprising majority opinion here, I thought this film was awful, and then some. I watched it right the way through without subtitles, and it loses nothing in translation. The heroine was a cute chick, and I can't see anything culturally significant, didactic, tasteful or humorous about seeing her repeatedly violated. This film must surely be a favourite of the lunatic fringe feminazis because of the way it portrays men as misogynistic sexual psychopaths. Its only redeeming feature is that she killed the serial rapist at the end, but the film has no message except what, rape and gratuitous sexual violence is a turn on? In the underbelly of Japan maybe, but not in my dystopia.

ElijahCSkuggs Okay, so I'm going into a movie that's simply called "Rape!". Even though the title makes the movie worth watching alone, I've heard the movie is a real good entry into the pinku realm, and it is. I've also just learned that this was the first part to a quadrilogy, with Assault! Jack the Ripper, a better movie, being part of that quadrilogy. So there ya go!Well, this movie focuses on a really cute chick who gets raped and then realizes that she enjoys sex/rape. The movie tackles issues like a rapist can only enjoy the rape if the girl is hating it. Or that a girl who was sexually repressed, is now only turned on by being raped. Rape! is a crazy rape themed movie, that is pretty damn entertaining. If you're into this genre, I would say this is a must see. 8 outta 10

Gangsteroctopus This is a surprisingly beautiful and erotic film. The Japanese definitely have a thing for rape and it shows. It's not really at all exploitative, with a compelling subtext about sexual identity and erotic attraction. The perfect first date movie.
