Synopsis

Like a twisted cousin to the cyberpunk classic TETSUO: THE IRON MAN, Shozin Fukui’s RUBBER’S LOVER is a chaotic, grotesque, and unrelenting eruption from the mind behind 964 PINOCCHIO. When an underground research team abducts unwitting subjects in a bid to unlock their psychic powers, using chemical and sensory overload to push the limits of the body and mind, they usher in a new world where all boundaries are meant to be broken. A visceral piece of extreme cinema on par with SINGAPORE SLING and the works of Gaspar Noé. Not for the faint of heart. Now remastered in 4K.
