Môjû plot
The beautiful Aki was the model for an explicit exhibition of photos and one image. She goes there to meet with the maker for a new assignment. She meets a blind man on the spot who is groping her statue and at a certain point it feels as if she herself is being groped by him. She initially forgets the incident, but when she has a masseur come for her tired body after the new assignment, a blind masseur comes to her door. The visit gets out of hand, and the man turns out to have dark intentions.

Oldie.
A "classic" Japanese story, nowadays you have Takashi Ishii who comes up with this kind of stuff, but also a Teruo Ishii (who made a kind of sequel to this film) is not that far away. So the perverted mind can once again indulge itself.
The "artsy" decor looked a bit cheap I thought, also the acting wasn't that great. Especially in the beginning, when there was still some acting to be done, that makes for a bit of a difficult start.
Once it all gets a bit weirder and more uncomfortable, the film becomes a bit more fun, but in the end it all remains quite tame. Visually I expected a bit more (certainly based on references given here), the rest of the film also looked a bit too cheap.
Expected a bit more, the first 45 minutes are very tough to get through, after that it all gets a bit more gruesome and better, but it never gets so freaky that it saves the film.
2.0*
