Inferno of Torture1969

Horror Vault's take

Set in 19th-century Japan, this Toei exploitation entry plunges into a shadowy underworld where tattooed women are groomed, traded, and sold to wealthy foreign buyers. Two rival tattoo masters pour obsessive artistry into their work, but the flesh they claim as canvas belongs to women with no say in their own fate. The film operates in a space where beauty and brutality are inseparable, unfolding with the lurid intensity that defined Japanese pinky violence cinema of the era.
