Horohito was to Asia what Hitler was to Europe. Back in my early 20s I was all about finding and watching the most extreme films I could find and this certainly has moments of that, but I’m less interested in that kind of thing nowadays.

Hell, everything looks more polished and more film-like, maybe because it was released in the late 90's. That one scene was quite extreme, even for me. This movie seeks to recreate the events of the Nanking Massacre as realistically as possible and this is supported by how real footage was edited directly into the film in a documentary-like way.

Directed by Mou Tun-fei. It’s extremely exploitive and graphic and includes every terrible and taboo act you could imagine. Mainly because it was the same director. DESCENT INTO CINEMATIC HELL (2018 Challenge) #12 Black Sun: The Nanking Massacre  Here, the director of Men Behind The Sun, has somehow topped himself in terms of disturbing cinema and created a 90 minute endurance test of horrific imagery pummelling you frame to frame with extremely graphic stock footage weaved in-between scene after scene of massacre. Like Men Behind the Sun, the film was both criticized and praised for its brutal portrayal of the Japanese atrocities, such as the notorious contest to kill 100 people using a sword, during the early and late stages of World War II, but at the same time was questioned over historical accuracy and violence which gave the film a more exploitation feel to it. After an affair with Shing, she becomes pregnant.

However after having sat through it for the second time and knowing what to expect, I can say that I enjoyed the film a whole lot more.

The first time I saw this film, the gore and violence depicted in this film really got under my skin, therefore I gave this film a negative review and that’s saying something, for I’ve seen a lot of messed up movies.

This movie shows so much death, some being overly extreme, but according to the accounts of people who were there and survived, all of the stuff is very accurate. IMDb It feels a bit like a mix of feature film and and documentary. Please help us to describe the issue so we can fix it asap. This has to be one of the toughest watches for me. Film data from TMDb.

All the films from my exploitation lists, bundled into one mega-super-list-to-rule-them-all! Black Sun: The Nanking Massacre is unflinching in its depiction of the barbaric cruelty with which the occupying army raped, pillaged and terrorized the defeated populace. Hundreds of thousands of people were raped and murdered, and weren’t treated with an ounce of respect. It may not have exactly aged fantastically, but I still think it’s an important film to behold; one in which is gratuitously violent but for good reason and you can feel the anger from behind the camera. The film adaptation of Nobel Prize winning author, Mario Vargas Llosa’s epic, The War At The End Of the World (La guerra del fin del mundo). Director/producer T.S. Pessimistic worldviews. Sometimes you need a movie to provoke a response and get the world to notice an atrocity buried by victors. But you have no right to call me a binge-watcher. Less notorious than The Men Behind The Sun, but no less impactful, Black Sun dramatizes the events of the Japanese occupation of Nanking in a way that could be seen as pure exploitation if it weren't all documented history.

There's little artistic merit here. Wan,…. Harsh going for casual viewers, but a beer-spilling blast to gore fiends. So they came into Nanking to kill, rape and pillage so that the Chinese will be liberated and benefit from Japan's great Emperor. It’s an emotional rollercoaster and made all the sadder by the fact that it’s not only based on real events, but that the real events were so much worse than shown here, and that’s saying a lot considering we see a woman unborn baby ripped from here….

There is a more comprehensive story, and the effects look slightly more polished.

But how many people even talk about the Nanking Massacre? A radio DJ in pursuit of an exclusive interview follows ABBA during their mega-successful tour of Australia. The scene in which a young boy is forced to watch his baby sister get brutally raped and burnt alive while his grandmother is pushing him away forcing him to run as he’s trying to help is just as horrifying as it sounds, and most of the film plays out this way... a difficult watch is an understatement.

Mou's recreations of the atrocities are punctuated by historical photos to remind us that this actually happened, a master stroke and a humbling experience for those going in looking purely for blood and guts. Made by fans in Auckland, New Zealand. It was definitely left out of my WWII history lessons as a kid. some are respectful, others are NOT. A headstrong young girl in Afghanistan, ruled by the Taliban, disguises herself as a boy in order to provide for her family. The movie depicts the events behind the Nanking Massacre committed by the Imperial Japanese army against Chinese citizens and refugees during the Second Sino-Japanese War. For when you want to wallow in despair. It is also pretty damn brutal. The Nanking Massacre was one of the biggest atrocities committed by the Japanese.

Rather gory/sadistic retell of the WWII atrocities carried out by the Japanese. I was very tempted to skip this after the previous two disappointments, but I'm glad I stuck through. Just monotonous death interspersed with facts. The only scenes I really enjoyed were the Japanese debates of morality and such included in the film where surprisingly (for a propaganda film) some of the Japanese disagree with the methods being used. The series is truly disturbing, but does work well as a teaching aid, in order for us to understand how history is essential in preventing us from this sort of thing again. The movie depicts the events behind the Nanking Massacre committed by the Imperial Japanese army against Chinese citizens and refugees during the Second Sino-Japanese War. I will…. I was initially prepared to be bored out of my mind, but after that brutal bayonet abortion scene my attention was hooked.
