Switchblade Pictures Licenses Oniroku Dan's The Slave Ship
HOUSTON, August 7, 2012— Mutsuo Yoshioka (UNDERWATER LOVE) the dark erotic thriller was distributed theatrically in Japan by Shintoho.
Onimata Kan is famous for two things: a successful career writing S&M erotica, and hosting the erotic gatherings aboard what has come to be known as the Slave Ship, where the main attraction is the auctioning of the services of sexual partners willing to fulfill any desire. But if it's all consensual, there's no harm, right? At least, that's what Onimata believes until he learns that one of the frequent auctionees has gone insane, and that her husband believes the cause is related to a stalker she had acquired. Are the activities aboard the Slave Ship somehow to blame? Fearing the answer, Onimata goes to investigate the mysterious Kitagawa, and soon learns that his own writings only hint at the extremes to which some will go. From the famed pen of S&M novelist and screenwriter Oniruku Dan comes a tale that blurs the lines between reality and fantasy. Is this a work of fiction or a documentation of fact? You'll have to determine the truth for yourself, once you've booked age aboard THE SLAVE SHIP!
THE SLAVE SHIP will be released for Home Video on subtitled DVD November 13th.
