5/10
Lots of perversion but not many shocks.
17 July 2002
"Island of Perversion" (the version with this title is uncut, by the way) is a movie that tries simply to be an exercise in pure cruelty and depravity, but doesn't have the artistry (or the budget!) to pull it off. Mastorakis obviously has no shortage of imagination, but some of the most "shocking" scenes are staged in a way that....well, lets you know they're "staged" and "fake", so you're not really disturbed. Still, this film definitely has the ingredients to be a cult classic. Two stars out of four...but ONLY for the curious.
