A photographer, his assistants, client and models find themselves stalked in the dark near a secluded and desolate resort, under construction, by a filthy madman, body stained from head-to-toe with dry mud. The film spends a great deal of time displaying the sordid activities regarding the photographer and his sexual treatment towards his hired models, his salacious client wanting a piece of the action. After a mountain shoot for a magazine, they find a resort for shelter after something come across their windshield scaring the group, and the place provides a refuge for sexual activities. Beginning the festivities, the photographer and his client wish for their assistants, constantly ridiculed by their employers, to wrestle. After this humiliating act where the female assistant(..after sustaining several wrestling maneuvers by her *foe*)pees on the floor while suspended in the air, the couplings engage in sex. While the photographer breaks in his new model(..who is a virginal innocent, really unprepared for what he has in store for her), his client wishes to partake in lascivious acts with his former squeeze(..who is still quite obsessed with the photographer, not taking his rejection of her well).
The film has lengthly soft-core sequences between the couples with murders often taking place shortly afterward. The killer, who is often well hung, even has his way with the models who, at first, run for their lives, before being caught and sexually molested(..but enjoying the penetration after becoming pleased with his large member). The violence can be quite grisly. One model's head is taken off by a broken sheet of glass from a neon sign, her decapitated head later kissed by the female assistant who has been driven insane by the photographer's rejection of her. A running amoral theme shows how all the women under the photographer's charge were sexual partners, willing to do whatever he commanded, even allowing him to take pictures of them in various positions. Director Kazuo Komizu blankets a soft light over the middle sections of his characters while they are in the throes of sexual passion, probably at the behest of studios. We even witness sperm drippage after the climax of sexual situations. Quite an exploitation feature, featuring plenty of sex for those who desire such a thing. And, the flick is WEIRD. The insane female assistant actually uses a finger from a decapitated arm to pleasure herself! The sexual positions are often quite unusual such as when the client lifts his partner in the air, with both delivering oral sex to the other..he designs this position as an answer to a wrestling hold(..the pile driver)he witnessed during the *bout* between the assistants. The killer uses a hammer to smash a victim's skull, the force of the impact popping out his eyeballs. A javelin throw sends a wooden spear through the body of a victim. Another victim is being pleasured when the killer's hand reaches farther in, pulling away her guts. One victim is hung by a sharp hook through his throat. Certainly requires strong stomachs and a positive reaction towards various forms of sexuality, forced and otherwise. Women are not well treated in this particular film, often an object of embarrassment, misogyny, titillation, and misery. I'm not letting them off the hook completely, for a great deal of what happens to them, particularly their acceptance of sexual favors for a possible career boost, is permissive.
