Ron van Rijswijk I bought this one real cheap, i thought why the hell not. I enjoyed The Machine Girl, Tokyo Gore Police and Mutant Girl Squad, i even liked Helldriver which was a chaotic mess. In my opinion Gothic Lolita Psycho just didn't work out, first of all the whole thing is completely ripped off from Tarantino's Kill Bill (and sucks at it). You get this girl dressed up as a goth in a completely over the top style, who starts killing off a couple of nut jobs who killed her mother (you'll figure out at the end of the movie) one by one. Most of these so called killers act plain idiotic, for example you get a perverted teacher who flies through the air armed with a mob. And a psychotic schoolgirl wearing a eyepatch who talks like a baby, it might be fun for those who enjoy rediculous over the top behaviour but it just annoyed the hell out of me. Don't get me wrong i enjoy watching japanese crazyness, but this production just failed. yes there's gore. Not the rediculous amounts you get to see in Tokyo Gore Police, but it's decent. Dismembered limbs, squirting fountains of blood. Crushed bodies etcetera, but it just didn't caught my attention. It just looked like they didn't try hard enough to make something good, what also bothered me was a huge plothole. There's no background history of the killers, you never get to know how they met eachother. Or why they teamed up to commit the murder, believe me. There are better japanese or any other asian splatter movies to watch then this crapfest.
trashgang What can I tell about this flick. It's a typical Japanese flick but in the new way. This one do has a story but there isn't that much going on except a few flash backs and a lot of fighting scenes. The credits on the sleeve did mention the new attraction Asami but she's maybe for 2 minutes in this flick. On the other hand they tease you with Rina Akiyama who has won the Best Buttocks Award 2007. Guess she asks to much to show it.I found it an average flick with the last fight having something special. Suddenly the flick moves into some kind of possessed flick with devils and monsters. Still, it's full of sputtering wounds, Japanese style. No nudity whatsoever. I have seen so many of those kind of flicks the last months with humour and gore that I can't tell which one was different from the other one. Only for the lovers of the new Japanese horror but for me, old school was much better.Gore 3/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 2/5 Story 2/5 Comedy 0/5
mmushrm Girl has her birthday celebrations interrupted by a group of hooded killers who burst in cripple her father and kills her mother.Now she is in a journey to avenge her mother, hunting down and killing the killers one after another................. while dressed as a Gothic lolita doll.Why is she dressed as a Gothic lolita? No clue as the movie does not explain. Why did the killers kill her mother? 'cos she's a monster. Why is she a monster? no clue. Who are the killers? no clue and there is no history or development.That sums this movie up. Expect no character development or even any plot of story development. This movie is all about action, action and action. She shows up fights the killers and kills them.Some of the fight scenes are quite well done but others are a little too drawn out. Add the lack of any form of character or plot development, the movie seemed repetitive. I found myself fast forwarding through parts of the fight scenes (which is basically the movie).
lirayune This movie is not logical. This movie is not challenging your intellect. This movie does not want you to think too much about it. This movie gives you exactly what the title offers, nothing more. I think it "borrowed" a lot from Kill Bill, for example certain fighting moves or villain character traits. (Actually, my first thought was Tarantino had seen this movie and decided to make a western, a little more serious version. Then I noticed this was the more recent production.) The story seems a little similar too. I'm not saying that there IS much of a story here. In fact, I expected the story to be nonsense, but not to be that incomplete. Still, it was fun to watch, and had me constantly ask myself whether is was entertaining because it was so creative or just because of its plain stupidity. It is one of those movies I'm not able to judge by the standards of "good" or "bad". If you like goth style and anime-like over-the-top action sequences, you will be entertained. (I was.) Just don't expect anything else.
