 Rated 3 out of 5
Ok.......
Lemme see here. You have some weird guy shove a piece of metal in his leg, he sees maggots all over it (ICK) runs out into the street gets hit by a car, then thus the driver turns into.... An iron man basically while the dude who got hit by a car is planning his death or something. Man this film is one hell of an acid ride through his transformation into this iron man. Very bizarre and twisted with the constant slash off to the heavy pumped industrial score while you try to focus on what’’s going on, many times I thought this was to absurd and wanted to turn it off but I wanted to see where it was going. It’’s visually breathtaking and not a very pleasant thing to sit through, but I can’’t give this five stars because quite frankly I don’’t know who would. This is followed by equally messed up sequel "Body Hammer" but that one made no sense really.... This is made by Shinya Tsukamoto who is a very good director and actor as well, if you’’ve seen Ichi The Killer he’’s in there as a character, I want to check out his movie Tokyo Fist but I’’m kind of scared too...... This is worth checking out only if you handle it. Rated 4 out of 5
A completely unique experience!
Tetsuo is not for anyone that’’s the least bit squeamish. For the rest of us, it is an absolute wild ride. The movie is black-and-white, hyperkinetic, and totally unique. The story makes only some sense, but it is the visuals and music that work here.Shinyo Tsukamoto uses fast cuts, weird camera angles, and the black-and-white film to great advantage in Tetsuo. Every frame is overloaded with detail, and the metallization of people in the movie is more a weird combination of tubes, wires, and cables than anything else. Visually, this movie is unique, and Chu Ishikawa’’s soundtrack fits it perfectly. You will just sit there, and say something like: whoa, what the heck is going on!! Tetsuo II is completely different; hard to believe Tsukamoto also directed it. It is worth seeing only to fill in some of the holes the first movie leaves in the story. Unfortunately, the hyperkinetics and great visuals are completely gone in Tetsuo II. I give Tetsuo only 4 out of 5 for an overly graphic middle section; it is a truly humorous section (you’’ll know what I’’m talking about when you see it), until Tsukamoto takes it too far. Otherwise, a great movie.  Rated 5 out of 5!
