6/10

Not quite sure what to make of this. It is my first foray into the "pinky violent" subgenre. Supposedly the three stories were partially based on documentation of real stories and each one is pretty bizarre and while not very good, can't say it's bad either, just doesn't have much substance other than men's desire to torture I guess. **3.0/5**
