[REL] Tomato Ketchup Kotei (1970)

Tomato Ketchup Kotei (1970) [Japan]

This is one of the strangest movies I've ever seen. If James Broughton and Stan Brakhage were to collaborate in making a film and Alexandro Jodorowsky was to be its creative consultant, something very close to Emperor Tomato Ketchup would end up being the result.

There is no plot, just a number of vignettes, all about five minutes long, featuring anything from a man decapitating a chicken to three little boys dressing up in drag to images of Jesus hanging on the cross.


Apparently, a social commentary is being made throughout. Shot in Sepia and intentionally difficult to see at times, this one will hardly appeal to the common viewer but will certainly grow to be considered a classic amongst those who like their cinema odd, very odd.

Found this, may be a short clip?

A very rare movie, only available through cvmc.net I think

Should be the music video. It appear that tomato ketchup is also a music group
