Thats right Hal, Killing for Culture covers that story.
Flowers I thought has pretty good effects , but theres no story as such, just torture.
There was another Asian film which was on the double header bootleg tape I had with Flowers on that I found more disturbing but there was no Tittle on it so I dont remember its name.
Its been about 10 years from i've watched 'Flowers' as I did'nt like it. Not because of the content but with no real story I found it boring, like why was the torturer dressed as a Samurai.? Why was he doing it,? etc It was hard to be disturbed when the only background knowledge is a a rather fake looking abduction which imo killed any doubts that what your watching is real.
Though if its a well done gore fest you want this film is definetly ticks that box.
