Review of Tetsuo II: Body Hammer

I found this movie slightly better than the first "Tetsuo" (which I HATED), mainly because it appears at first to be willing to tell a more coherent (if still unique) story. Soon, however, the story disappears into a farrago of violence, mayhem and senselessness; by the time the completely baffling ending arrives, you've already given up trying to make sense out of what's happening. However, there are some ingenious special effects and a breakneck chase scene that's worth seeing. (**)
