Disturbing big time!, Oct 13 2008
This review is from: Men Behind the Sun (DVD)
This film is definetly not for people who get grossed out easy. It is really disturbing to see people being tortured and killed, even women and children were victims. It is a good movie, worth watching, however, some of the scenes will stick with you for a long time.

Excellent film, almost perfect DVD, Mar 23 2008
This review is from: Men Behind the Sun (DVD)
I should first note that the back of the DVD says it clocks in at approximately 95 minutes, which would be cut. I timed the DVD while I watched it and it's actual time is 105 minutes. This DVD is uncut, rejoice! One last thing I should note is that for what ever reason, my subtitles weren't working and so I had to watch it in cheesy dubbed english. Not a huge deal but I did feel that it took away some of the impact of the film. I also hate how on the cover it states, "In the tradition of Faces of Death!". I hate that crap. Other than that, the DVD was great and had some cool special features.

Good Film for people who don't like cats and rats, May 16 2004
This review is from: Men Behind the Sun (DVD)
I had read all the hype about this film. How shocking and disturbing it was. You have no idea what a disappointment this DVD was. Very boring. The few moments that show "gore or violence" are very weak, poorly shot, and the effects were cheap. You could see much more violent and disturbing things by randomly picking ANY horror film from the shelf at the video store. There is one slightly nauseating scene involving an autopsy of a supposed REAL corpse. Still I've seen worse footage of surgeries on the Discovery channel. the worst thing about this film is the footage of the REAL live cat fed to the room full of starving rats. This was out of place and totally unprofessional of the "film makers". And I use that term loosely. Later the same rats are set on fire. For real. Real entertainment here, folks. If you are interested in the true war crimes of Unit 731 go read a book. Gore hounds like myself will be severly dissapointed.
