    Here's hoping! I should have used that as a tag in the review...

      It's funny because it's non-consensual.

        Don't forgot about Mondo Macabro's Roman Porno releases! ASSAULT! JACK THE RIPPER, WATCHER IN THE ATTIC, FEMALE PRISONER: CAGED, SINS OF SISTER LUCIA, NAKED RASHOMON and PROSPERITIES OF VICE! All excellent esp. ASSAULT! and WATCHER, two of the very best in my opinion.

          Will have a review up for Eros School: Feels So Good by week end. It's another good one, though completely different in tone than the other three Impulse has handled so far. It's kind of a rape comedy.
          I'd be remiss if I failed to mention the Tatsumi Kumashiro RP trilogy on Kimstim. The 3 films comprised of Sayuri Ichijo: Following Desire (1972), Yakuza Justice: Erotic Code of Honor (1973), & Twisted Path of Love (1973), the last film being one of Kumashiro's personal favorites.

            Forgot about those too. I have Yakuza Justice and Twisted Path Of Love but never got around to picking up Following Desire.

              I've just ordered the two most recent releases. I'm always wary of importing this stuff. You know what our customs officials are like over here

                And the next two titles to be released in the line on 9/11/12 are....

                Nympho Diver: G-String Festival:

                A once thriving Japanese village is in dire need of young, beautiful ladies to help with diving duties. Times are tough and the current diver is definitely no spring chicken, so the mayor's son finds some beautiful maidens to fill the position. Plot quickly takes a back seat, as the arrival of the new recruits gets a rise out o the village's male members. Let the sex games begin! Culminating in a celebration in which the new diving girls parade around in their tiny bathing suits to bring in cash-laden tourists, this film is a crazy, comedic take on timeless Japanese traditions. Of all the genres endemic to Japanese cinema, the ama, or 'Girl Diver' film, is perhaps the most curious. NYMPHO DIVER: G-STRING FESTIVAL switches up the formula by replacing beautiful underwater photography with cat fights, nudit and even a crazy perverted monk!

                Female Teacher: Dirty Afternoon:

                A teacher, Sakiko Kurata (Yuki Kazamatsuri), receives a phone call regarding one of her former students. Young Sueko (Ayako í”ta) is accused of being a prostitute and has requested Sakiko's help. This minx seduces random strangers for sex, but does not ask for payment. Sakiko has moved to another town an barely remembers Sueko, but there's something about her that awakens painful memories of her own secretive past. What is that strange paint thinner smell on Sueko? Who is the man in the nylon ski mask that violently assaulted Sakiko many years ago? In her search for answers, Sakiko discovers that her past may have inadvertently destroyed another family's future. The “lusty schoolmistress” provided an obvious fantasy figure for Nikkatsu Roman Porno scenarios. There were at least a dozen films made with the FEMALE TEACHER banner, each pitting a plethora of pert young cuties against their more mature and experienced classroom rivals. FEMALE TEACHER: DIRTY AFTERNOON is one of the best, and most controversial, of this series of films.

                  Nice! I'm happy to see Nympho Diver is next. I've been wanting to see the Nikkatsu Ama films since I read "Behind the Pink Curtain"

                      Glad to hear it. Do these have any sort of BBFC classification at all?

                        I haven't checked thoroughly but I'd seriously doubt it :D

                        Some of the Pinky Violence movies have slipped through the net, like SEX & FURY, but I'd imagine that the BBFC would still struggle with most of these titles.

                          Woohoo! ZOOM IN and THE TRUE STORY... CONTINUES have been shipped. With any luck, they should be here in the next week or two.

                            You're in for a treat with Zoom In, I think it's my favorite of the line so far (and honestly, I've enjoyed them all).

                              I've been waiting on these as none of them grabbed me right away but ZOOM IN is sounding like something I'll dig, thanks for the reviews Ian and Paul.

                                In response to a question on Facebook Synapse responded that the next two titles in their Nikkatsu line will be I LOVE IT FROM BEHIND! and SEX HUNTER: WET TARGET, both set for release in December.
