Ishii Teruo's Kyofu Kikei Ningen

[eigagogo at free.fr]

Speaking about ‘Kyofu kikei ningen’, has anybody got list of movie banned in
Japan?

I heard some Wakamatsu productions were involved (Torture Chronicles,..), Toei’s
Torn Priestess video release seems heavily cut, and of course Realms of senses &
Kyofu kikei ningen (altough it was screened in japan 2 year ago during Ishii
tribute festival
). I also heard some early roman-porno were not allowed to be
screened.
