Strip Mahjong, what could you possibly expect from a movie with a title like that? And not even remotely surprisingly it's Japanese so immediately assumptions had to be made that it was going to be seven shades of messed up.
It tells the story of 4 girls who are kidnapped and forced to play a degenerate game of Mahjong where failed rounds result in losing clothing and bust equates to death. All while being viewed by the perverse snuff liking viewers.
Technically this falls under a sub-genre of horror I really like but the wafer thin plot and extra fan service really doesn't leave it as a credible film.
Despite the nudity it's actually fairly tame stuff, it's more titillating than gratuitous so it won't appeal to those after fan service nor people after an actual competently made cogent film.
It by all rights could have been worse but everything about it just comes across as seedy. To make matters worse if you don't understand the rules of Mahjong then the whole thing comes across a bit impotent, I didn't "Get" what I was watching.
An extremely niche film and I'm not sure quite who it's aimed at.
The Good:
Cast are actually fairly good
The Bad:
Not the most comfortable viewing
Lack of understanding in Mahjong damages the experience
More of a pervy experience than a feature film
