Inflatable Sex Doll of the Wastelands (1967) Brand New Sealed

The Inflatable Sex Doll of the Wastelands (1967) Brand New Sealed refers to the Japanese cult film Kôya no dakinedoll, directed by Atsushi Yamatoya, a frequent collaborator of Seijun Suzuki. Blending avant-garde visuals with noir and exploitation elements, the film follows a hitman hired to retrieve a film reel that depicts a woman’s murder, leading him into a surreal, violent odyssey where reality and fantasy blur. Starring Yuichi Minato, Noriko Tatsumi, and Miki Odagiri, it has since become a touchstone of Japan’s late-1960s “pink film” movement for its mix of eroticism, absurdist tone, and stylistic experimentation.
