Dangerous Drugs of Sex (2020)

For those with unique taste

I would like to start with clarifying that the story is not about BDSM. BDSM is like role-playing between consenting adults. However, I would highly recommend this to someone who is into twisted stories, torture, sadism and masochism. Not a lot of people are into this so I understand why some are rating this film lower.

This does not appear to be a big budget film, however the sex scenes were unique and tastefully done. They were very intense. Although it started quite dark, the ending is actually positive. Both characters know how broken they are but find comfort of having each other to get them through life.

If you feel guilty for enjoying this movie, you are in good company.

Extreme Spoilers ahead......




.....I had skipped over this movie for months because it sounded...meh...but I was told that if I were rooting for Pete and Vegas by the end of KinnPorshe, I would probably like this one. I spent the first 30 minutes not knowing what to think or feel about the storyline and the characters because the story was dark and drenched in emotional trauma, sexual and psychological torture, suicide, and hopelessness.

It starts with a naked man bound on a bed in a stereotypical psychological thriller-style room. His kidnapper walks in as he tries to figure out what is going on and how he got there. The following 30 minutes are spent with him being raped using various sexual devices by the man holding him there. It's pretty confusing, and you will probably be wondering why you are still watching it (it's because the acting really draws you in), but then all the pieces start coming together during the last half hour.

Both men are entirely broken were committing suicide. The one held captive by jumping off the top of a building, and the captor by overdosing on fentanyl. It turns out that the captive lost his parent in a car accident and blames himself because he sent them on their trip and was busy having sex with the girl who later left him when he was supposed to pick his parents back up from the airport. They took a taxi and were both killed on the way home. The captor is a surgeon who is very happy with his life, where he is usually able to save the lives of so many. Still, he doesn't notice that his boyfriend is becoming more broken by the day as he works in a hospice and is constantly surrounded by deaths he can do nothing about. The captor's bf ends up committing suicide by overdosing on fentanyl, and this destroys the captor, who is constantly being haunted by visions of his lost love.

When he sees the man he kidnaps going up to the roof to jump, he has encountered him twice, first outside the morgue and again in the cemetery. Seeing him the third time and knowing what he is about to do (what they are both about to do), he decides that fate has sent them to save each other through suffering and torment as a way to want to live again. Stockholm syndrome ensues, and the captive becomes attached to his captor emotionally and mentally despite having just been raped by the man while he was having a psychotic break, complete with visions of his dead bf. The next day he lets his prisoner go, leaving clothes for him, removing his shackles, and leaving all of the doors unlocked.

He's been in the basement of the hospital the whole time. When he spots the kidnapper in the hospital, he seems a bit shaken to realize the man is a doctor, and he can't understand why he has been released. By now, he is attached enough to feel like he is being abandoned by the only reason he still has to live, the doctor. The doctor heads up to the roof, and the now-free man follows. The doctor takes him to eat and then to the cemetery to visit his parent's graves. During this time, the doctor explains everything that has happened and tells him he is free. They part ways, and the doctor stops at a lonely beach made more depressing by the overcast day and darkness of the water. He is about to take the fentanyl when he sees his boyfriend's ghost standing out in the water. He runs into the waves and tries to reach him, but, of course, the bf is never there, and he becomes even more hopeless...if you want to know the rest, you should really watch it.

Overall, as I said, I felt guilty for liking it so much, but the guilt didn't stop me from watching it two more times...and I'm sure I'll watch it again. I am drawn to fictional tragedies like a moth to a flame. I can't even remember how many times I've watched KinnPorsche. So, if graphic abusive sexual content doesn't bother you and you also found yourself rooting for Pete and Vegas, you'll probably like this too, and it's totally okay to enjoy Dangerous Drugs of Sex.

At this point the only complaints I have are:
1) that others get really judgy if you tell them you liked it and not only finished it but watched it more than once
2) that neither main character has been the main character in much of anything else. Their acting was absolutely phenomenal, especially considering the storyline.

:) Happy Viewing!

I LOVED THIS MOVIE!

Ok so the smut factor was what really drew me in at first. You know when it's your time of the month and you just want to watch something yummy. Welp, I got what I asked for. It was indeed the most bold and erotic BL movie I've watched to date. I loved the explicit scenes. They were exactly what I wanted. Totally unapologetic and so effin raw. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time I was watching the movie. Please watch this alone and with earphones on people! My eyes were literally glued to my phone screen. But what I was totally NOT EXPECTING was the depth of this movie. I was prepared to write this off as one for my spank bank so boy was I surprised to have my mind blown towards the end of the movie after the dark BDSM period. When the tied up guy (can't even remember his dang name, I will hence refer to him as TUG) went after Yoda (his name I remember coz Star Wars LOL) at the beach when Yoda was about to end his life and then TUG grabbed him from behind and said "Give me your life" maaaaaaaaaan that hit me. The parallelism when Yoda said those exact words to him at the beginning when it was TUG who wanted to end his life -- maaaaaan!!! Chills!!! They literally saved each other!!!
And then another smut action ensues this time more softcore. And at the end when both of them had been spent from all the sexing, and TUG asked Yoda "You're still alive?" -- just like what Yoda kept asking TUG when he was all tied up and sexed up in the basement. And then Yoda answers "I'm still alive". WHOOAAAA!!! It was Yoda telling TUG he wants to live again. And thus they have succeeded to give each other their will to live again. OMG!!! Now tell me this wasn't a masterpiece of an effin movie!!! I place this on top of my list. Although if anyone asks, I will deny. HAHAHAHAH just because people will think it's because of the smut. But really it was the smut AND THE PLOT people!!!! Is anybody with me???

Give it a Chance! (BUT BRING HEADPHONES)

I'll be honest, the current overall rating from my fellow viewers (7.5 stars as of today) made me want to run for the hills, but I'm glad I didn't. Once scanning through reviews, though almost every one I read talked about the sex and explicit nature of the movie, the main thing I noticed was their overall rating on the story itself. I saw 9's, 9.5's, 8's, and even a couple 10's- that's when I knew, despite the graphic scenes I was going to see, THE STORY WAS WORTH WATCHING.

THE STORY follows a man whose parent's have recently passed away. As things in his life begin to crumble, he feels he has nothing left- so upon a drunken night he hastily decides to commit suicide. But before the act is done, a man saves him... and ends up holding him captive (wild, I know, but we'll get there.) While being held captive, and through unorthodox methods forced upon him by the savior, the man realizes he doesn't want to die. The savior soon lets him go upon realizing this, and the two end up having a detailed conversation about life and death itself. This is where we discover the savior has a few dark demons of his own. In the end, upon the savior feeling he has nothing left to offer the world, it is the man who saves him in return.

THE ACTING is absolutely PHENOMENAL! The commitment to the characters, their roles in each other's lives and the scenes themselves was spot on. This may be the reason why some people found most scenes too uncomfortable. Though the story might not be the most realistic, the acting was. I could feel the pain in their eyes, the embarrassment from some scenes and the hurt in others.

THE MUSIC was slightly above par. There were many times when an orchestra or violins began to play, which added to the mood of a scene.

REWATCH VALUE is definite. Once time has passed, and I'm in the mood to view something that makes me think yet still has aspects of a BL, this would be on my list. After all, in my opinion Japan just has a certain way with portraying love in its truest and rawest form.

Dark & Engaging...

I first heard about this film from a BL Instagram account and had to watch it due to its subversive nature. And boy! What a wild ride it was! The film was problematic as it did use sexual assault and rape as a 'commendable' way to teach a suicidal character to appreciate life. Not sure logically how this works, but okay... And it did reinforce the idea of Stockholm Syndrome, falling for your kidnapper. However, I must admit that the story was engaging and compelling. I was invested in the story and rooted for the characters to end up together.

On a side note, it's always nice seeing subversive content coming from Japan, which is known to be polite and formal. It's interesting seeing a country produce content like Terrace House where everyone is respectful of one another and Sei no Gekiyaku who sexual assault abounds.

HOW in the seven hells did I end up here?

!!DISCLAIMER/WARNING¡¡
This review is based on my personal opinion/experience while watching, you're free to agree/disagree with it.
If you are under the age of 17 or suffer from PTSD/Anxiety disorder, please refrain from watching it as it is very explicit and contains r@pe, some BDSM related scenes, heavy implications of Stockholm syndrome, mentions of death and attempted su¡cide. With that being said, my review is NOT meant to encourage/discourage you from watching in any way, shape or form, this is just my opinion/advice so you're definitely not obligated to agree with it or to take it to face value.


Holy hell, this was the longest disclaimer that I've ever written in my entire life, however, it is definitely not unnecessary or uncalled for. This movie is definitely NOT for the faint of heart and I honestly highly advice against watching it, mostly because of how hardcore and unsettling it is and how very uncomfortable I felt throughout the whole thing so, yeah I very obviously didn't like it, I'm gonna try to keep this brief because honestly, I don't even have the capacity to write a full on review like I usually do so yeah, this review is more of a rant rather than a review, and with that outta the way, let's proceed with this "rant".

>The plot was all over the place and the beginning of the movie were very iffy. I had to pause it not even 20 minutes in from how uncomfortable it made me feel.
>The acting wasn't great and it fell flat in some scenes. None of the actors stood out to me and the script just felt hollow. Ik some people liked this movie and ik that it has its audience, but god the script just felt very meh, like they tried to throw in too many different things at the same time it just ended up in a mess.
>the music was almost none existent and the bit of music thrown here and there felt very odd especially when it's paired with such visuals.
>the production was surprisingly good, the overall vibe and the lighting definitely stole the show here lol, I will say tho, the transitioning between scenes confused me a little but yeah, I really hope it was just me here.


And yeah, these are my two cents on this movie. I apologize for not being able to give more insight on this but I seriously don't have the energy to do so, you can read other people's opinions on this if you want more info on this matter. I hope you won't be traumatized after watching it too. Thank you to anyone who was able to stick around to read this unhelpful "review" and decided against throwing rocks to my head lol, really appreciate it.

DISCLAIMER: watch ALONE and with HEADPHONES

*outline*
For the love of humanity please follow the title's instructions... from the very beginning it opens with a bang. Metaphorically and maybe even literally. It felt like a journey of pure psychopathy. I'm literally still questioning what the whole thing was even about...


*analysis*
STORY : I never wanna watch that again. I don't even know why I did, but I did and I acknowledge my sin. The whole plot was just totally out of it and I really wonder what the movie makers were thinking during filming and deciding to publish it. I would've given a higher rating if the story actually made sense but it didn't... at all. The only reason I give it that rating was that the story was unique and had a backstory.

ACTING/CAST : I don't know whether all the sex and stuff was fake but it really looked in-genuine. And the fact Ryoji's character was how he was? That was disturbing enough to give anyone nightmares.

MUSIC : I swear there was only one theme anyways? I mean, yeah, it suited the whole story but it was just one piece of music so I can't give it a higher rating than that anyways. It just set the mood, I guess.

REWATCH VALUE : No way. Nuh uh. I'm not gonna do that to myself. My poor eyes.


*recommendations*
Unless you're into some hardcore stuff like BDSM, pain kink, etc, DON'T watch this. It's not for just anyone to watch and I'm not criticizing anyone's ability to watch this stuff but like- I'm not gonna try explain myself.
I have no recommendations for you if you liked this... I've never watched anything like this so please bear with me...
Thank you-

Speechless

First of all, don't watch it if you're sensible or can't or if you can't stand erotic things. Not your typical BL. It's something deeper ...

Advice: WATCH IT ALONE WITH HEADPHONES.

So...
I actually enjoyed it. I had to re-watch it multiple times to understand everything that was going on. (I couldn't concentrate the first time?)
That Makoto just wanted to kill himself, and luckily Ryoji saw him and saved him.
Everything that he did was to mostly help him.
In the end Ryoji wanted to end his life, but Makoto arrived then.
Yeah, it may be Stockholm syndrome, but I think he really liked him for who he really was after learning about his actions towards him.

The cast, in my opinion, was wonderful. They are hot, of course, but to make such a movie, it may be really challenging. So I really appreciate them for their amazing acting and everything. ?

Yes. I'll surely re-watch it.

Watch alone. Watch conscious.

*A little bit of spoiler alert*

I just finished watching the movie and I won't say it is a "happy ending" because somehow it is not. It is a "twisted ending".
If people definition of happy ending is they ended up together than yeah, I give it to you, it is a happy ending, but is it?
He (Yoda Ryoji) saved him (Katsuragi Makoto) from the will and craze for killing himself, yes.
But did Makoto make Ryoji forget his past lover, not really, that is what the last scene is about, he said he is Alive. How many times will Makoto have to remind Ryoji that he is not his past lover, how many times will the trauma come back to him? Saving a person does not mean they are living, they are just alive.

(A simple example of that is when you are having a horrible day and someone, anyone comes to you and asks how you are, most of the time we don't answer that we are fine, we say we are alive or surviving.)
So they ended up alive and together but not necessarily happy.
Physical pleasure is not everything, they have a life to live, Ryoji has a hospital to go back to and Makoto has a job that he lost, he has to continue living somehow. How many things will they have to mend besides their souls?
But what makes it really twisted is that they will either have to die together or they are going to end up taking their own lives after the other dies.
They bound themselves so deeply that it is either alive together or dead together. It is twisted because they are literally bound to each other's heart.


The movie is great, I was hooked and deeply in. It is a great story/plot.
I enjoyed it and the actors, omg, they deserve an award for that.
If you have triggers tho, do not watch it.

WOOOOW I HAD NO HEADPHONES BUT U NEED THEM (FOR FULL EXPERIENCE)

So very graphic but I loved it overall.
People will call me a psycho but it's one of the best BL's for me. It gives you raw reality, not the sugar-coated mess you get in any other drama or BL. You feel the emotion so this is not for the faint of heart or people that's easily triggered don't watch it because it is very deep and has a solid storyline and deserves tens all across the board it needs appreciation for every aspect. This is deff a rewatch for me when I need a waking for life or just for fun honestly.


P.S
I don't get why people don't read tags on the movie and read the overview AT ALL. It literally tells u the biz so don't get on here and bash it honestly. PLEASE READ BECAUSE IT IS FUNDAMENTAL FOR YOUR EYEBALLS AND MIND IF YOU DON'T HAVE THICK SKIN.

I'm dumbfounded

Seriously..... What a movie!! Way beyond my expectations..... To be honest I wasn't expecting it to be this great..... The movie is a bit hardcore but it teaches you Stuff about life, love and loss...... How the unimaginable can drive your will to live..... Infuse a life force.....
The movie for me stood between despair and amazement and went on to ignite hope.....
The chemistry between the two actors was awesome..... The acting pulled me in..... I wish they could convert it into a series.... Coz I was left wanting for more...... The music had an eerie, haunting vibe to it..... Especially the whistle tune.....
It's a 9/10 for me.....
