Ocho (Reiko Ike) has just arrived at the station, when she is
kidnapped, taken to a trio of hoodlums, stripped, tied up, fingered and
drugged. when she comes to, she finds herself naked besides a dead body,
apparently the latest victim of the crotch gouge murderer. Fortunately for
her, a stranger, Jyoji (Ryohei Uchida) helps her to escape before the
authorities arrive, but as a result of this, Jyoji soon finds himself on
the run from the three hoodlums as well. That she was abducted at the
station was not a total surprise though, because Ocho actually does a
little investigating in the crotch gouge murder case - and she soon finds
out it has to do with the prostitutes of Lady Boss who do a little drug
running on the side, transporting the goods in their asses and pussies.
Their bosses are the three hoodlums and the girls are kept under
submission by a healthy dose of heroin every now and again. On the other
side of the deal is the Ogi Clan, and Ocho owes her life to the Ogi's old
boss, but the old boss is dead, and his successor Goda (Tatsuo Endo) is a
right little scoundrel, who has actually killed the old boss and stolen
the gang from the old boss's daughter, whom he has hidden away in an
asylum. Still, Ocho pretends to team up with Goda and she even sleeps with
him, if only to get to the bottom of the whole case and free the old
boss's daughter wherever she might be - as much she owes to the old boss,
she gathers. Jyoji is the sworn enemy of Goda. He was a loyal follower
of the old boss, but was (wrongly) sent to prison for his murder. He
eventually hooks up with a weird killer nun, whose friends have been made
drug couriers by the three hoodlums. With Ocho, he tries to free the old
boss's daughter from the asylum, but they find her already killed. Ocho
and the nun convince the drug-running girls - both those in Lady Boss's
employ and the nuin's friends, that they have been abused by the hoodlums
and the Ogi Clan alike and that the very people they have worked for are
actually the crotch gouge murderers, who have killed some of their friends
... In the finale, Goda tries to sell the drugs from the hoodlums to the
Big Tiger, only to find out the drugs are fake - then the hoodlums attack,
because they want their share of the drugmoney they don't even deserve to
begin with. Enter the nun and her girls, Ocho and Jyoji and Lady Boss's
girls, and suddenly it's an all-out battle between the Ogi clan, the Big
Tiger and his men and the three hoodlums on one hand, and all the girls -
who all strip before going into battle - on the other. Of course the girls
win in the end. This film starts out as a sleazed up version of
Teruo Ishii's own early Black Line,
but it soon goes so over-the-top in such a way that it becomes something
unique in its own right. The point here is that Ishii is not just sleazy
for the sleaze's sake, he's also an incredibly skilled and stylish
director, and especially in this film, he comes up with hilariously
outrageous excuses to get girls naked. Of course, one might argue that
amid all the creative ways to get girls out of their cloths, the film
loses sight of its story, which is overconvoluted to begin with - but this
would mean taking the film too seriously instead of as the piece of
hilarity it actually is ...
