If you loved The Fetist, try Muscle
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Hisayasu Satō, and they both carry the raw mood tag, and they sit in Drama / Horror / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Fetist, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Muscle is
Tokyo. Summer heat. The click of a shutter. Ryuzaki, a physique magazine editor, falls into a brutal S&M affair with the narcissistic Kitami. One year after a prison sentence, Ryuzaki hunts down his former lover. Sato's film is a key title for fans of Japanese erotic horror.
