The premise
In a futuristic Tokyo where police have been privatized and bitter self-mutilation is so casual that advertising is often specially geared to the 'cutter' demographic, Ruka is on a mission to avenge her father's assassination. Ruka is a cop from a squad whose goal is to destroy homicidal mutant humans known as 'engineers', that possess the ability to transform any injury to a weapon in and of itself.
Horror Vault's take
In a hyper-commercialized dystopian Tokyo, privatized police officer Ruka hunts a terrifying breed of mutant killers called 'engineers' — beings whose wounds literally become weapons. Her mission is deeply personal, fueled by the unsolved assassination of her father. Equal parts cyberpunk nightmare and splatter spectacle, the film wraps relentless carnage in a neon-soaked satire of consumer culture and self-harm. It is not for the faint of heart, but rewards viewers who crave transgressive genre cinema pushed to its absolute limit.
