action
Eiji, 17, developed a substance called "MYSON" that converts pain into pleasure. His mother also works in medical research and is currently conducting a contraception experiment to combat overpopulation. Eiji exploits this fact and secretly adds his own to his mother's drug.
The three test subjects soon show their first symptoms. A model obsessed with her own body destroys her entire body with rings and other objects. A young woman who is mad about food begins to deep-fry and finish her own body. The third subject, Rika, reacts differently, however. MYSON awakens sadistic needs in her, and Eiji, who falls in love with her, ultimately falls victim to his own project.
Eiji's apparently dead father also plays a role. He was looking for eternal life and believed that man would achieve it by entering the "kingdom of light".
style
Naked Blood is best known for the fancy splatter scenes, although these only make up a few minutes of the film. For example, a woman eats her own labia and her own eyeball. Most of the time, however, the film creates a surreal, symbolic atmosphere. Important symbols are the cactus with which Rika identifies and the camera that Eiji stands behind. Musically, an alienated version of Bach's Goldberg Variations serves as the theme.
