Pornostar, like a lot of films from this era, explores the isolation, rage, and disillusionment felt by the inner-city youth of Japan, and the potential rabbit holes they can fall down when these suppressed emotions are brought to a simmer. It's a bleak yakuza vigilante flick with a surprisingly dark sense of humour, a perversion for violence, and a tiny bit of psychological deterioration interwove throughout. No idea why it's called that though.
Getting stabbed to death in a parking lot by a guy plunging six different knives into my chest one billion times is the way I wanna go out.
