Watch Crazy Lips For Free

Excellent, Without a doubt!!

Excellent adaptation.

Don't listen to the negative reviews

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

It seems that every bozo who's written a comment for this movie has eventually come to a point and admitted that they gave up with trying to follow the plot. But not me! I stuck it out, and I'll now tell you exactly what transpired in Crazy Lips.Nah, I'm messing with you. I gave up as well. I did. Here's a quick glimpse into what Crazy Lips has to offer. The flick starts off with a family being bombarded by news reporters who want answers about their possible murdering brother. They hire some crazy psychic broad who can remote-sense through telephone lines, then there's her boob squeezin' obsessed side-kick. Then you find out one of the sisters has some type of super mind control power that she uses to kill people with, then the psychic chick orders 'ceremonies' on the entire family that basically just rapes them.....I can go on and on with the whackiness on display here. And it only gets weirder. You want incest and necrophilia? Okay! By the end it turned into a action flick with fights all over the place, and there was even some type of monster 'thing' supposedly on the loose. And there was even a song in the middle of the movie.Okay, Crazy Lips is nuts. It's that simple. But it's also entertaining. And if you dig any type of weirdness with elements of exploitation, then this should be right up your weird ass alley.

When Michio Kurahashi is suspected of being a serial killer and goes on the run, his pretty sister Satomi hires a psychic in a desperate bid to prove his innocence. And precisely what happens after that is anyone's guess...I usually jot down notes whilst watching a film to help make life easier for me when it comes to writing a comment, but about half an hour into Crazy Lips I put down my pen and paper, for accurately summarising the plot to this insane movie was clearly going to be impossible and all the scribbling in the world wouldn't help me to express my feelings about it.So I'm going to wing it, sans notation; bear with me...In a world where most mainstream cinema has become dull and predictable, I can always find time for the completely demented and bizarre, and Crazy Lips is just that—a depraved, off-the-wall piece of Japanese cinema that defies simple categorisation. Supernatural horror, mystery, music, soft porn, and martial arts are combined by director Hirohisa Sasakito to produce a messed up piece of work reminiscent of movie maverick Takashi Miike's offbeat output, only one lacking that director's unique narrative skills, sense of style and intelligence.But although Sasaki might not be a real threat to Miike when it comes to confrontational cinema (Takashi still holds the title 'King of Japanese Weirdness' for producing monumentally effed up movies like Visitor Q and Fudoh), Crazy Lips is still the only film I have ever seen to feature the wandering spirits of decapitated girls, a pair of FBI agents who keep an eye on proceedings through the screen of a television set, a scalping during intercourse, and a woman being forcefully double teamed by an evil psychic's assistant and a hanging corpse with a hard-on.All of which must surely count for something.

I would have to say the most bizarre movie I've seen to date is Shinya Tsukamoto's "Tetsuo" (1988), but "Crazy Lips" comes in a close second. Writer Hiroshi Takahashi, director Hirohisa Sasaki, and producer Takashige Ichise all have a hand in piling genre upon genre in the making of this uncategorizable film. There's something for everybody here, and no hint as to what direction the movie is headed from one scene to the next, so just sit back and enjoy the ride. The only American-made films I've seen that come even remotely close to this amalgamation of forms are "The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension" (1984) and "Six-string Samurai" (1998). If you like either of those, or even if you don't, then this movie is worth catching. Rating: 6/10.

The excuse for the rest of the movie is a story about a widow and two daughters being harrassed by neighbors and media alike as the missing son is the prime suspect of the recent beheadings of middle school girls. When the equally harrassing police fails to help them look for the son, the younger daughter consults a psi-detective and her assistant. Director Sasaki's efforts to throw in every type of entertainment in 85 minutes of film has won him some praise for making a movie rising above all genre-boundaries in a mind-blowing treat. Criticism has accused him of not knowing where to stop--the director himself acknowledged this.I personally had the chance to ask him whose lips were going crazy, and he was embarrassed to answer that the title came before the plot, and just stayed there through the re-draftings of the movie.*POSSIBLE SPOILERS* FYI, Miwa Hitomi is a better singer than the movie lets you think, and Abe Hiroshi personally asked the director to give him all of Shimomoto Shiro's lines--to which his managers strongly objected and as always in Japan, had their way. Most of the film budget was saved for the grand finale. None of the actors were really interested in working with this movie when they got the script. All this information was given by the director himself in an interview after the movie's screening in his hometown, which I attended.
