Sadistic human experiments inside Japan's notorious WW2 Unit 731 where PoWs were infected with plague, raped and buried alive are brought to life in ultra-violent Chinese movie

There are no documented survivors of Unit 731, the covert department of the Imperial Japanese army that conducted lethal experiments on thousands of civilians in occupied China.

As it sought to develop chemical and nuclear weapons, the unit subjected its mostly Chinese victims to a catalogue of horrors beyond the human imagination between 1936 to 1945, when the Empire of Japan surrendered.

Civilians were dissected alive without without anesthesia, infected with bubonic plague, typhus and cholera and used as human guinea-pigs for frost-bite treatments in spine-chilling torture laboratories.

A new Chinese film called 'Evil Unbound' has brought to life the unspeakable acts that occurred in the germ warfare prisons, where even pregnant women - raped by guards - were subjected to vivisections, and the dead were hastily disposed of in electric furnaces.

The ultra-violent movie, directed by Linshan Zhao, isn't just a deep-dive into old wounds, but has the potential to stoke anger in the present day due to its disturbing revelations about the crimes against humanity committed by the Japanese.

In fact, before its theatrical release in China on September 18, the Japanese embassy issued a security advisory cautioning Japanese nationals to be 'vigilant against anti-Japanese sentiment' due to films and events held in conjunction with World War Two's 80th anniversary.

Its debut was even abruptly postponed from its original July 31 date, sparking speculation in Japanese media that the delay may have been aimed at avoiding diplomatic tensions.

While the gory spectacles showcased throughout 'Evil Unbound' may seem excessive, in reality the film hardly touches the surface of what truly occurred in the notorious facilities.

The U.S. had another atomic bomb that could be made ready to drop on Japan (possibly Tokyo) within two weeks after Nagasaki was destroyed. Also the production of enriched uranium and plutonium would have had several nuclear weapons ready for use during each month through December. No invasion of Japan by U.S. or Allied troops (many of whom would have been killed or wounded) would be necessary.

If whatever leadership in Japan would not surrender, there would be nothing left to surrender. As the Potsdam Declaration stated, "We call upon the government of Japan to proclaim now the unconditional surrender of all Japanese armed forces, and to provide proper and adequate assurances of their good faith in such action. The alternative for Japan is prompt and utter destruction."

And after Japan's surrender, evidence at the Tokyo War Crimes Tribunal was presented about the emperor's complicity. However it was removed when the U.S. (shamefully!) decided to give the emperor immunity.

I didn't know this.

I could have accepted the idea that a group of sociopaths went off on their own and adopted "methods" that were "unsound"; you clearly know more about this topic than I do.
