“u0026quot;Shogunu0026#39;s Joy Of Tortureu0026quot; is the first part in Teruo Ishiiu0026#39;s so-called u0026quot;Tokugawa Seriesu0026quot;.This episode is set in seventeenth century Japan,when members of the Tokugawa clan ruled the country with fear and terror.Punishment for those who broke the rules set by the Shogunate was brutal and severe.u0026quot;Shogunu0026#39;s Joy Of Tortureu0026quot; tells three terrifying stories about guilt,crime,and punishment.The film is loaded with some truly shocking torture scenes,so some unprepared viewers will be offended.Women are decapitated,burned alive,beaten,whipped or torn in two by oxen.The production values are high,the cinematography is polished and the soundtrack is moody and sad.u0026quot;Joy of Tortureu0026quot; spawned seven sequels from Teruo Ishii.All of them are truly sadistic spectacles of violence and misogyny,so fans of Japanese exploitation should check them out.9 out of 10.”
