Philosophy of a Knife (2008)
"God Created Heaven , Man Created Hell " - a Tagline perfectly apt for a film like this which is based on Real incidents on a Army secret medical facility " UNIT 731" at Japan During World War II. Most of us know well about the cureal experiments conducted at German Death camps but there were many such incidents happened around the world which mostly went noticed until later time , this film was just portraying one of that.
This movie is more of a Documentary type capturing some of real events occurred during that time with some real pictures supported by Enactments on how some of those Experiments were conducted on Humans. Each moment was so brutal and highly disturbing to see and to even feel how they would have gone through such pain n suffering. Seeing this makes me feel like the tagline is true that there is no such thing as hell until man invented one. While most part of the world celebrates doctors as gods there were others who did their last breath by the same doctors masked as Executioners. Though they say these data collected by such experiments were for greater good to find advanced medicine n cure yet subjecting a person to death killing them bit by bit is so Psychotic and a inhuman way.
Movie is so heavily impacting and there are scenes you could only fast forward. With Two parts of this movie each with two hours run time , it would be the most hardest time you would ever felt watching a movie. Luckily this film is black n white which manages us from a blackout. There were many unwanted Cuts or repeated sequences with bizzard edits placed everywhere in the film purposefully just to give a weird look to it. I might have preferred if it was a complete true documentary with some censor on the enactments not to go deep into the facts yet if it conveyed the cruelty in a better way. That said, this movie clearly brings out the kind of hell what innocent victims went through and i really wish their souls atleast rest in peace wherever they are. Seeing a slasher movie knowing its not real is one thing and seeing a movie which is based on real incidents that someone sometime had actually been through such tormenting experiments makes your heart stop for few seconds.Painful movie definitely not for weak hearted. Dont even go near it if you are.
