Taking punk to a whole new level and

Taking punk to a whole new level and meticulously tailored to weigh on its audience, 964 Pinocchio is an exhausting watch; the constant presence of screaming, yelling, grunting and whining bears its own unique sense of torture. A raw, hand-tooled vision that unfolds with visceral and stomach-churning intensity, Shozin Fukui throws shades of disturbing, comedic, messed-up, revolting, and mesmerising at you all at once in a breakneck charge through a brutal and uncaring post-industrial netherworld. The filthy, grimy aesthetic and relentless wallowing won't appeal to everyone, as it screams in your face and refuses to apologise for any of its repulsive imagery. However, the film presents a compelling concept to you, delving into it wildly once you're settled in, bearing all the hallmarks of an endurance test, complete with frenetic editing and off-the-wall acting choices, with mental anguish far exceeding physical tolerance. What 964 Pinocchio lacks in polish or budget, it makes up for with a visual intensity matched only by the sheer, uncompromising determination, hysterical pacing and the utterly demented insanity of its soundscape. It has an undeniable charm, but what exactly that is, is for you to decide.

I’ve read a review where someone describes 964

I’ve read a review where someone describes 964 Pinocchio as a fairytale. You know the classic story: Boy meets girl, girl teaches boy how to speak, boy falls in love with girl, girl betrays boy, boy is heartbroken, girl forces boy to wear shackles and drag a huge rock around everywhere he goes, boy and girl scream a lot and eventually merge together to become more powerful than they could ever dream of being. Tale as old as time! I watched Tetsuo: The Iron Man not long ago, and while I wasn’t he biggest fan of it, I did at least enjoy its unconventional analysis of our occasionally parasitic relationship with technology. But I can’t for the life of me work out what 964 is all about. The film owes a lot to both Cyberpunk and Kabuki theatre. The performances from every actor is so over the top and lung burstingly loud that it just becomes irritating after a while, and some scenes, namely characters walking or running with ear-piercing music paying in the background, go on for an absurd amount of time. It’s far more confusing than it is profound or meaningful, and with the cinematography and poor lighting, its often difficult to even see what’s happening. If you can make it to the end without zoning out or skipping parts, then you have far more patience than me, but I don’t imagine many people will have seen this one, or have any interest in doing so in the future.

Some over-reliance on certain practical effects, & there

Some over-reliance on certain practical effects, & there are elements that wear a little thin. Otherwise, this is a mad, spasmodic, oozing, infuriating, & inspired picture for those into that sort of thing.
