Tetsuo: The Iron Man (Japan, 1989) is one of those extreme movies that people either love or hate. Director Shinya Tsukamoto - who almost single-handedly created this movie - confronts the audience with his very own visual and sensual universe which is unique in terms of coherence and uncompromisingness. The hysterical mixture of violence, sex, metal and love - filmed in a comic-like and weird quick motion style - is the ultimate cyberpunk movie. If you like experimental movies and are not too squeamish, this is a movie well worth checking out. The scenes which were re-included in the movie were not taken out due to censorship and they don't really make the movie more brutal than it already is. Unfortunately we couldn't find out, why the First Cut was shortened for the final release. The First Cut of Tetsuo: The Iron Man was released in 2010 when Tsukamoto released the third part of the series - Tetsuo: The Bullet Man.
