Review of Blind Beast

Blind Beast (1969)
9/10
Where art and perversity meet.
29 March 1999
This is a wonderfully bizarre tale of the exploration of the senses. It starts out with a blind sculptor (Michio) kidnapping a beautiful model to fully explore her "perfect" body to create a masterpiece. The focus of the artist and model gradually shifts from the tension of the imprisonment to the imprisonment of the senses. As Aki (the model) loses her sense of sight, she and Michio search for ever more intense forms of tactile communication including beatings, stabbings and the demented climax (I'm not telling...). I'm betting you've never seen a movie quite like it.
