DVD REVIEW . Cloistered Nun: Runa’s Confession

Cloistered Nun: Runa’s Confession marks our third and final review from Kino’s Masaru Konuma/Nikkatsu collection. The previous two films prompted quite different reactions from me, but from what I’ve seen, it looks like this third film was the charm. Runa's ... continued»

MOVIE REVIEW [He-Said, She Said] . Teeth

DVD REVIEW . Erotic Diary of an Office Lady

As mentioned in our Dreamlogic update, we've received three of Kinos's recent Nikkatsu titles for review. I figured, why not start with the most provocatively titled one first? So, Erotic Diary of an Office Lady it is. Again, this being the ... continued»

MOVIE REVIEW . Stacy (2001)
