Brain Sex

1988 · 63 min

A grimy, voyeuristic descent into fetish and violence, cold and unsettling, watching you as much as you watch it.

Directed by
Hisayasu Satō
Genres
Crime, Drama, Horror
Overview
Two inquisitive young women discover a lone pirate radio DJ operating from a van. Broadcasting unofficial thoughts and opinions, the show gets increasingly complicated when the system of illicit broadcasting changes hands and takes on a covert voyeur angle. Descriptions of strangers' fetish-laden sex described over the radio take a turn after happening upon (and engaging directly with) a serial killer, and a curious exploration of motives then ensues.
How it feels
