In Japan in the not too distant future, genetically modified super-criminals known as engineers are hunted across Tokyo by a samurai sword-wielding heroine who self-mutilates in order to stave off flashbacks to her fathers murder. The engineers include a snail lady and a crocodile woman (whos literally half human, half crocodile, and best described as a croc teaser), though special mention must be made of the gentleman with the 6 foot penis gun that fires lethal projectiles that never miss their target. If thats not enough, theres also a woman torn apart between two moving cars and who could forget the sight of breasts that produce toxic waste that melts the skin of your opponent? Special effects creator Yoshihiro Nishimura later brought similar insanity to Helldriver, Horny House Of Horror and Zombie Ass: Toilet Of The Dead, but its Tokyo Gore School that remains his masterpiece.
