from Fear Frame A Horror Movie Podcast · host fearframepodcast

Welcome to the first episode of Fear Frame a horror movie podcast I’m Chris & I’m Devin today we are reviewing  964 Pinocchio.  Devin was awesome enough to Rip me a vhs copy of the movie and give me a vcr and dvd player combo I forgot how much I miss watching Vhs movies. The hiss of the vcr and the tape starting up. Ive been binging on vhs movies as of recently.    Initial releaseSeptember 14, 1991 DirectorShozin Fukui SequelRubber's Lover GenresHorror, Science fiction, Suspense, Thriller, Cyberpunk, World cinema, Erotic thriller Running time1h 37m LanguageJapanese   ·       Haji Suzuki as Pinocchio, a memory wiped cyborg who was thrown out due to him having an erectile dysfunction. He later gets a metamorphosis before setting off in a rampage. ·       Onn-chan[1] as Himiko, A homeless girl who takes care of Pinocchio and draws maps of the city to aid other memory-wiped people. She later experiences a metamorphosis, causing her to envision a past version of herself stabbing something. After this, she betrays Pinocchio. ·       Mitsuji Otsubo as Narishima, a mercenary tasked with capturing Pinocchio under the orders of the head director. ·       Kyoko Hara as the Secretary, an assistant to the head director, known for her unsettling and surreal demeanor. ·       San’yutei Rakumaro as the Captain, a member of the team pursuing Pinocchio. ·       Hisashi Goda as the Hungry Ghost, a mysterious figure contributing to the film's hallucinatory tone. ·       Kita Koji as the Magic Man (guest appearance),     Synopsys for the movie Pinocchio 964, a lobotomised cyborg sex slave, is abandoned by his owners due to his inability to maintain an erection, while the corporate entity plans to kill him This movie is a wild ride from start to finish I don’t want to spoil it if anyone wants to go check it out.  The grocery scene is so awesome no one in the store knows what to do they just stare at Pinocchio and Himiko grabbing food and eating it and her dragging him along.   While watching it I got aspects of Dragon ball z from the sound effects and actions like Pinocchio as he was running, if they did a Dragon ball z movie like this id watch it not that terrible one they made in the 2000’s that I watched on netflix. The special effects were gnarly the lady vomiting for 30 mins I was watching this while eating and im like uh ok. Haha  at the end he puts his hand into a guys stomach and the two characters on either side are just screaming and in aww and not moving just shocked When the credits roll I was left wondering what the hell I watched sitting down, the movie has a bunch of grunting and screaming and Asmr audio. Not as un nerving as some movies ive watched but close to it. .    While looking up information I noticed people talking about how it was shot gorilla style to get the reactions of the people in the crowds.  It is visual art in aspects I was drawn in at every shot it had aspects of Eraserhead for the crazy camera work and how it looked and Tetsuo the iron man that Director Fukui was assistant director on. They have a sequel to 964 Pinocchio called rubber’s lover. Fukui cited Blade Runner, Possession and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre as big influences on his work.     Release The film was shown at the Rotterdam Film Festival, which Shozin never went despite the programmer seeing the film and had played it there. Shozin was also even given a photo of the audience at the festival during the screening.[4] Unearthed Films released the film on DVD in the United States in 2007.[6] The film was released in a single edition DVD and in the Cyberpunk Collection alongside Fukui's Rubber's Lover.[7] 964 Pinocchio was re-issued for the first time on Blu-Ray on February 7, 2023, by Media Blasters, and again for March 24, 2025 by 88 Films, including a booklet essay by Mark Player, Fukui's earlier short films, Gerorisuto and Caterpillar, along with both a filmed introduction from Stephen Thrower, a new interview with Fukui along with the aforementioned 2007 interview What do you rate the movie out of 5 stars?
