Gonna see this movie??? Be prepared!
10 February 2001
Warning: Spoilers
The Japanese word JIGOKU translates to English as HELL. During the first half of this 1960 epic shocker, we follow some students take on a rather evil mentor. Most of the students are killed during various fits of rage. The second half follows these students in Hell. Though this film was made 40 years ago, the Hell scenes could still garnish an NC-17 if shown in a modern multiplex. Sinners are sawed in half, slammed in the jaw with spikes, limbs are torn. It's brutally frightening! Masterfully photographed and acted.
