They should have sent a poet, cause I don't have the words

I am a big fan of foreign films. I mean Ameilie, Seven Samurai, this is great stuff, classic even. But I recently saw the best foreign film of all time: Riki-Oh, The Story of Ricky. The blurb on the back goes like this - "When his drug-addicted girlfriend commits suicide, Riki-Oh offs her dealer and finds himself locked up in a prison where the accused have no rights and very little hope. The other inmates torture Riki-Oh with a stunning variety of implements (which include pretty much anything at hand), but he fights back as if his life depended on it -- which it does!"

Let me go ahead and tell you this is not an accurate description. Yes the girlfriend dies, yes our hero kills a drug dealer and yes he then goes to prison. How and when these events occur has little bearing on the ... lets call it plot.

The movie is dubbed so poorly that it could have been a spoof and in addition to that it was also subtitled in English and the two don't match! It's awesome!

In the end the main bad guy turns into a giant monster. I don't even know how to tell you all about the confusion and disturbing badness that is this great, great film!
