A violent killer is preying on women and dumping their bodies in an abandoned building. Tomoko (Erina Miyai) cheats on her lover with another man and thinks the killer saw their romantic tryst. She doesn’t want to go to the police, because she’s afraid her affair will be discovered, but the killer continues his murderous spree. What will Tomoko do to hide her torrid secret? Can she escape the hands of the murderer? The first entry in Nikkatsu’s famous “ZOOM UP” adult series, ZOOM UP: MURDER SITE is a dark, violent film that’s described as “…a collection of staggeringly repulsive murders, perhaps the most sadistic ever generated on film…The words misogynist and mean-spirited can barely describe the atrocities on hand” (Thomas and Yuko Mihara Weisser, JAPANESE CINEMA ENCYCLOPEDIA).

Based on Oniroku Dan’s famous novel, FLOWER AND SNAKE is the first Nikkatsu erotic film to deal with the subject of sadomasochism. Makoto (Yasuhiko Ishizu) is a sexually-repressed man living with his mother Miyo (Hiroko Fuji) who owns an adult toy store. When he was a child, Makoto remembers shooting a soldier whom he found having sex with his mother. The elderly man who owns the company Makoto works for has an interest in BDSM and wants Makoto to kidnap and “train” his wife (Naomi Tani) to submit to him. With Makoto battling the demons of his past and unsure of the consequences of his own sexual awakening, what transpires is one of the most shocking, perverse and jaw-dropping Nikkatsu films ever made. Remastered by Nikkatsu Studios in high-definition, FLOWER AND SNAKE is one of Impulse Pictures’ most-requested titles to be released in our continuing Nikkatsu adult film collection.
