Boring, long, and too preachy.
Robert Joyner
The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

This movie was so boring. It was your typical anime boring crap, filled with satanism, female nudity (But almost nothing of Male nudity, that's why it sucks) ugly designs, a stupid plot and boring and bland characters.This show was so stupid and boring, that it was completely worthless.There wasn't any single good thing about this, everything about this show sucked.This movie is pretty lame, even for anime standards. Unless you are an anime fan, don't waste your time seeing this crap.What a stupid movie, and what a waste of time. This sucks hard.

What I like about this film (and the broader aspects of the series as a whole) is the sense of imagination; the scope of the world that is created, and the depiction of characters and scenarios that couldn't possible exist, even within the confines of our wildest dreams or indeed, our very worst nightmares. Yes, some elements are pure sleaze, but you could make the same accusation against Pasolini's Salo, or the 120 Days of Sodom (1975), which is one of the finest works of political satire and pure cinematic art ever created. Obviously, Legend of the Demon Womb (1993) lacks any such lofty pretentious, essentially offering us a re-occurrence of that central Japanese image of the giant monster destroying Tokyo, with all kinds of episodic sub-plots and sidelines involving the war between three different worlds, evil scientists creating a machine for the purpose of rape and demonic resurrection, and the ultimate signal of the apocalypse as a final, purging rite.Naturally, the film also finds the time to revel in the depictions of lurid sleaze, mystical prophesising and the occasional burst of grandiose destruction; but there is still a recognisable intelligence here, and a sense of imagination that is deeper and richer than what many potential viewers might expect. For example, if were to (perhaps) read too much into the film, the you could see it as something of a critique of modern society and the general negativity and selfishness of human behaviour in general. Clearly, it is worth noting that the first film began with the narrator discussing "ignorant humans" in an opening voice-over that clues us in on the three different worlds and the legend of the overfiend itself, while the narrative here - without giving too much away - suggests world domination and destruction leading to the central idea that to find peace and harmony we must destroy everything that went before and rebuild it completely from the ground up. These notions can be looked at in more detail, or they can be treated as superfluous information secondary to the violence, fantasy and action. Regardless, these elements alone show that Legend of the Demon Womb is a film far more interesting than its reputation as a work of over-the-top, sexually explicit exploitation would suggest.The original Japanese release is the version to see, if you can find it. The story, although edited down from three single episodes, is easier to understand and the dialog manages to convey the story, as well as giving us a vague insight into the characters. The US dubbed version is often heavily censored to the point of incomprehensibility, whilst the American dialog is laughably bad and delivered so flat as to make even the most innocent of lines seem like the most childish of double-entendres. Nonetheless, besides the more controversial talking points, the elements of tentacle-rape and purely indulgent hentai, the film remains somewhat entertaining and is filled with rich characters, depth and imagination.

I really like these type of series. Like the first one this is pretty the same. The story in this movie is both sad and interesting. I like this kind of movies a lot. This movie has good fighting scenes too. I think that those who think this movie is bad just look at the other cartoon movies. There is lots of cartoon movies witch are bad. But this type of movies are different. It has something special. The music for example is so good like the first one. This movie is special from the other cartoon movies. This kind of movies ends pretty bad all the time. But that's cool, like why should movies end happy all the time. It's just not real. This kind of movies makes you think after you have seen it. People can think different. When i saw this movie for the first time i was surprised like the first movie. I thought of the world and human kind, monsters too. The person who wrote this movie would get a big thank of me. I think that people can't see sex in cartoon-movies to much. That's why people don't like these kind of movies. Because the movie have sex scenes doesn't mean it is a bad movie. The coolest thing in the movie is when the blue-haired guy is getting his revenge at the end. So this movie would get a 8,7 of 10

Although very loosely related to the first episode (legend of the overfiend), it still holds its own as a great horror/action anime adventure.
