Tokyo Gore Police
“Tokyo Is Burning.”
Certified Crap. CrapScore 65, rated by 1 admin.
Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.
A future Tokyo police force hunts mutants whose wounds become weapons. Each encounter offers another grotesque design problem, usually solved with latex, machinery and an alarming amount of blood. The revenge story is secondary to this extremely graphic exhibition of creature ingenuity.

Synopsis and movie facts
In a futuristic Tokyo where police have been privatized and bitter self-mutilation is so casual that advertising is often specially geared to the 'cutter' demographic, Ruka is on a mission to avenge her father's assassination. Ruka is a cop from a squad whose goal is to destroy homicidal mutant humans known as 'engineers', that possess the ability to transform any injury to a weapon in and of itself.
