Part of

Eccentric Psycho Cinema

Japanese Horror Collection Ultra-bizarre and sick as hell bondage series focusing more on women abducted by the sadistic sexual psycho and the strange bondage torments they’re forced to endure at his whim. Somewhat creepy in his appearance and mannerisms, the abductor likes to toy with his hostages and leads them to believe they have a chance to escape him–most often as he’s taking a nap–but they find out the hard way he was just playing another game with them and setting them up for a trap–nasty endings! "Eccentric Psycho Cinema" features women being chained up, beaten and sexually mutilated by a crazed male psychopath.
