Tokyo Gore Police
Movie • 2008 • Action
ReportSet in a future-world vision of Tokyo where the police have been privatized and bitter self-mutilation is so casual that advertising is often specially geared to the “cutter” demographic, this is the story of samurai-sword-wielding Ruka and her mission to avenge her father’s assassination. Ruka is a cop from a squad whose mission is to destroy homicidal mutants known as “engineers” possessing the ability to transform any injury into a weapon.

Where to start.
1. First Engineer encountered has chainsaws for hands and grows a flesh one after his arm is cut off.
2. During a flashback, a police officer's head explodes in spectacular fashion.
3. Another Engineer encountered rips his face off and grows gun turrets to replace his eyes.
4. A character is converted to an Engineer by having their arm "unlocked", splitting the flesh apart down the middle. This happens with someone's head later.
5. In the sex club scene, one Engineer is seen with teethed mouths replacing her breasts, another is seen with snail-like features, and another is a fleshy chair.
6. An Engineer's genitals and thighs are turned into a crocodilian maw.
7. One character's penis is turned into a large, fleshy gun that shoots people.
8. One girl has a boxcutter fused to her arm and her breasts spray acid.
9. The protagonist develops a toothy jaw to replace her arm as well as a red monocle-like eye.

Not shown in detail, but can be inferred. In the beginning of the movie, a man is shown eating meat before the camera pans to a human corpse.
There is also a later instance of someone having their penis torn off.

There is in-universe copaganda (ex: ads advertising the police and glamourizing police brutality). However, said copaganda is satirical and the public is meant to see these ads as dystopian and messed up.
The villains are the police. However, the protagonist and her father are framed as "good cops"

Two very brief scenes. The first one has a character laying in bed after being attacked. Nothing medical occurs.
The second scene occurs near the end. A doctor is seen carrying a tumor in a vial.

It's in the title. If you're even interested in watching this movie, you probably know what you're getting into. The point of the movie is to be as bloody and gory as possible. I will note that it's all very over-the-top and not realistic, however.
