 IKU
(Eclectic DVD)
2000. Sci-fi/porn. 74 minutes. Not Rated. In English and Japanese. In
the future, the Genom Corporation invents a computer chip that will allow
great sexual relations for a person without ever touching another human.
All one has to do for a good time is hook themselves up to a computer and
take in all the enjoyment of virtual sex. In order to get all this sexual,
orgasmic data, the Genom Corp has released an army of replicants to engage
in various sexual exploits and record the experienced emotions that are
later downloaded for usage. Reiko, a sexual data retriever, is hot on the
job and carries out her orders to have sex with many people, in many
places, in many different forms.
IKU is Blade Runner meets Tron meets any Japanese porno movie,
which are then rolled up into the format of a video game. IKU is a 100%
digital movie loaded with all sorts of trippy effects and weird
information screens. Now, there is a bunch of nudity, including some
graphics shots, but all the insertion is optically blurred out or
obstructed in some way. The most hardcore scene is a quick male on male
“oral treats” shot; there is no blurring or obstruction for this part.
If you’re into Japanese women, IKU will surely float the ol’ boat. I
must admit, all the digital mumbo jumbo effects did get on my nerves, but
the sound and picture quality are truly state of the art. Along with
numerous character, actresses, etc info, there are also four deleted
scenes included in the extras. If IKU were rated, I am willing to bet it
would be NC-17. Hmmm, a movie
to turn on techie nerds? – Denis Sheehan
