Starring: Kana Mochizuki

Code: SHKD-238

This movie -- about a criminal who terrorizes a picture-perfect, happily married couple -- is mostly a flop. Many of the scenes aren't convincing and are actually kind of dull.

However, the movie does contain a few select scenes that are outstanding. It is for those rare triumphs that Shark #238 merits a written review.

Actually, I liked the movie's concept. A criminal in black garb sneaks into the apartment of a happy couple and turns their pollyanna world upside-down, with an onslaught of terror that includes some scenes of bondage and numerous rapes of the young wife, including an anal rape. Even better (in theory), her captive husband is forced to watch some of the rapes.

I also liked Kana Mochizuki, the actress who plays the trophy wife. Kana is very pretty. In some of her early scenes, she's wearing a pink top, a white summer dress, a white apron, and pink slippers, and looks so wholesome she makes Snow White seem kinda skanky by comparison (check the trailer on the Attackers website). Kana also has a great set of tits.

Although the villain sneaks into the apartment first thing in the morning, the real action in the movie doesn't come until the end of that same day, when the husband comes home from work. The knife-wielding criminal, who has been threatening the woman all day, decides to hide from the husband -- only the petrified wife knows the fiend is in the apartment.

As the husband sits in the living room reading his newspaper and drinking his beer, the villain decides to take advantage of Kana in the nearby kitchen. Presumably terrified that she and/or her husband could be killed by this criminal, Kana gives in to his demands.

The villain begins feeling up Kana, who is fully dressed, and then pulls her big tits out of her top and starts playing with her nipples. As a trembling Kana whimpers, the villain fondles her tits and quietly whispers what I assume were violent threats in her ear.

Always conscious of her nearby husband, Kana leans over the kitchen counter and attempts to prepare sardines for him. But as she's doing this, the villain lifts her dress, pulls down her panties and fingers her pussy. Kana appears to be quietly pleading for him to stop, but the digit play continues.

There is a brief pause in the action, as Kana pulls up her panties and nylons, straightens her dress, and goes into the living room to attend to her husband. With a perfect poker face, she acts like the dutiful wife, happy just to keep him happy.

But Kana must soon make her slow return to the kitchen -- to placate the villain and receive further violations.

Once back in the kitchen, Kana is forced to get down on her knees and suck the criminal. The villain then has Kana stand up and bend over the kitchen counter in the doggie position. He lifts her dress again, yanks down her nylons and panties, and then proceeds to finger her, lick her pussy, and then fuck her doggie style, drilling her pretty hard for the most part.

Kana looks spectacular here. Not wanting to alert her husband in the nearby living room, the quivering Kana pretty much collapses to her knees in ecstasy while she is being fingered. At the point where she is getting fucked, she purrs some soft whimpers and moans, while the villain pounds away and continues to verbally threaten her.

At one point, her husband calls out to her from the next room, and she answers in a sweet little voice, even as the criminal is still inside her and feeling her up.

It's a great scene ... if only the rest of the movie had been like this.

This movie has other sex scenes, but they're not convincing as rape scenes. They're OK as vanilla sex scenes, I suppose, if that's what you want.

There is a decent amount of bondage here -- Kana is tied up in four different scenes -- and one particular sequence stands out. It occurs the next day, when the husband has gone back to work. The villain comes out of hiding again and, with the help of a friend that he has called over to the apartment, they terrorize Kana in what I think was a basement area.

Leather straps are used to bind her hands together, and she is tied arms over head to the roof. Kana is wearing a pretty, pink negligee and matching panties. The villains gag her mouth using one of her nylons, and then rip open the negligee. The new criminal on the scene sucks on her tits and plays with her pussy. They then abuse Kana with different-sized vibrators.

Other scenes include Kana being bound in different ways, and there is one instance where she is wearing a dog collar and chain and is pulled along the floor on all fours to a nearby mattress and a waiting rapist. I liked one part where she is pulled by the chain up to the guy's butt, and forced to lick his ass.

The final half hour of the movie has the villain and two friends (a third guy has been called in) raping Kana in her bedroom, including an anal assault, while her near-naked husband is bound to a nearby chair and forced to watch the action. It sounds good, but these final scenes all look pretty staged, and Kana is never constrained in any way. Simply put, the whole thing falls flat.

Overall assessment: lightly recommended. Bondage fans will probably like some of the stuff here. And the scenes where Kana is violated in the kitchen are excellent. It's just too bad the rest of this movie was so lame.
