We discuss Nikkatsu's launch of "Roman X" with the double bill of "Woman in a Box: Virgin Sacrifice" and "Taboo X: Perversion" in 1985. Both films are true crime stories, based on the Colleen Stan kidnapping and Issei Sagawa respectively. We also cover Masaru Konuma and brief highlights of "Roman X."
