Mutant Girl Squad

What do you get when three of the best – and bloodiest –directors making action./horror movies today — Noboru Iguchi (The Machine Girl), Yoshihiro Nishimura (Tokyo Gore Police) and Tak Sakaguchi (Samurai Zombie) – decide to team up for a single cinematic experience? Words just can’t describe it. It’s the story of a young girl named Rin (Yumi Sugimoto) who gets a big surprise on her 16th birthday, an arm that can claw, slash and disembowel people at an alarming rate. We’re not talking about a tool or weapon, here: It’s her actual arm, a mutation that kicked in when she reached 16. Rin soon finds she’s not along in the world when it comes to bizarre mutant powers, ranging from a girl with samurai swords shooting out of her breasts to a cute cosplay nurse with tentacles and a trunk. Like we said: words don’t do a movie like Mutant Girl Squad justice, so just sit down, strap yourself in and enjoy the ride.
