What it’s about. Midori Satsuki stars as a vamp who destroys one poor man’s life after another. Finally she seduces a professional killer, which brings a tiny bit of action into the comedy oriented film. Being a Toei production, Mantis Wife’s Confession looks like real movie rather than a cheap exploitation production. Unfortunately the storyline is running circles, and there’s little to get excited about. A couple of good jokes make you laugh a few times, and one surprise has found its way into the film; Ema Ryoko plays a housewife. She gets into a fight, but her shirt stays on and doesn’t even get ripped.
Who’s in it. Confessions of Lady Mantis stars Midori Satsuki as Midori, Shingo Yamashiro as Tsushima, Yuki Morisaki as Sayuri Hoshikawa and Goro Naniwa as Butler, among others.
