It is perhaps contradictory to equate ingenuity with lunacy, yet this is exactly what happens to be the case in this movie. The only thing missing from this movie is Ed Gein's Human-Skin Lanterns. Although I appreciate Teruo Ishii's creativity in this film, I still prefer Mr. Ishii's Samurai film (BOHACHI) CLAN OF THE FORGOTTEN EIGHT because it so artfully combines Pink with Swordplay. So for those who enjoyed MALFORMED, I highly recommend Ishii's BOHACHI. What I'm trying to say is that if Ishii had included some of Bohachi's Sword-play in MALFORMED then I would have enjoyed it even more. Still admirable though-- as I said in the heading--disturbing but ingenious for its lunacy.
