R100: Exclusive Dominatrix Trailer Premiere

Fantastic Fest is no stranger to strange motion pictures. Case in point: R100, a comedy about a man who hires a dominatrix service to surprise him throughout the year with unexpected abuse. There’s only one rule: you cannot cancel the service for ANY reason.

You won’t see THAT at most festivals. Or at most theaters. Or in most imaginations. But here it is. 

It’s the latest film from Japanese filmmaker Hitoshi Matsumoto, whose kaiju comedy Big Man Japan made a splash stateside in 2007. Will R100 have the same kind of impact? You’ll find out for sure when R100 hits theaters on January 23rd, 2015. But until then you can check out this CraveOnline Exclusive trailer, featuring all the sexy sadomasochism and absolute insanity you could possibly expect from the film’s intriguingly kinky premise.

 

From the Press Release:

In this audaciously kinky, meta-comedic thriller, a lonely father with a secret taste for S&M (Nao Ohmori, best known for his titular turn in Takashi Miike’s Ichi the Killer) hires a boutique dominatrix agency that specializes in guerilla acts of public degradation.

Although the rough treatment and humiliation Takafumi Katayama receives from these leather-clad women––in cafés and on the street––drives him to ecstatic pleasure, he soon finds himself over his head during a surprise house call by one of the mistresses. After a freak and fatal accident, Takafumi is forced into action with a slew of vengeful dominatrices chasing him down. With the help of his son, he’ll have to devise a plan to take on the relentless femmes fatales, who each possess a unique S&M talent by which to exact painful revenge.

R100—the title a riff on the Japanese movie rating system, whose equivalent to NC-17 is R18—is directed by Hitoshi Matsumoto (Big Man JapanSymbol), one of Japan’s most preeminent and beloved comedic talents.
