ZU KEEPERS

Please don't tease the animals.

Operating on the same level of explicitness as cable softcore doesn’t mean roman porno flicks can’t push the envelope. Japanese filmmakers working in this genre were solidly experienced by the time Dan Oniroku aoi onna came along, and it’s amazing how adept they were at implying everything while showing little. Content-wise Dan Oniroku aoi onna gets pretty far out. The film had no U.S. release, but the title would be “Oniroku Dan,” after Japan’s most famous author of sado-masochist fiction, and “blue girl.” The blue girl in question is Izumi Shima, one of roman porno’s truly radiant actresses.

That radiance is undimmed even though she spends most of this film trapped in a perverted private sex club in bondage-related distress. We could describe how she ends up there, but why bother? We could also describe the various pokings, proddings, and probings the lovely Miss Zu endures, but there’s no point. She’s naked and helpless is all you need to know, and that—apparently—is what drew Japanese audiences to these films in droves. Most of the time we like to provide a set of stills or screen grabs to give you an idea what to expect. For this one we’re giving you only a single production photo, below. That should about cover it. Dan Oniroku aoi onna premiered in Japan today 1982.
