"Daydream" is a structureless succession of bizarre and erotic set-pieces revolving around a series of fantasies in a dentist's waiting room.A young woman named Chieko begins hallucinating whilst sitting on the dentist's chair.Her hallucinations involve dental surgeon,who molests and sexually abuses the woman.She is subjected to lengthy bondage session by the dentist,then she is pursued naked by him through a shopping mall and so on.The uncut Dutch version of "Daydream" contains several explicit scenes of pornography including a very long sequence of Kyoko Aizome being fingered by the dental surgeon.The commercial success of the film resulted in making "Daydream 2" aka "Captured for Sex" in 1987.

DAYDREAM is a bit hard to rate. A strange amalgamation of surreal "art-house" style film, pinku, porn, and horror - DAYDREAM if nothing else is quite original. I think SCOTT_FROM_MODESTO's comparison in his review of DAYDREAM to Jodorowsky's works is quite fitting for this film, as it truly does seem like the type of film that he would have created, had he been of the mindset to make a bizarre pinku film. My copy is in Japanese with Dutch subtitles (neither of which help me at all...) - but there isn't a whole lot of dialog regardless, so I feel I got the gist of the storyline.A man and woman go into a dentists office, and as they are sedated, they have bizarre dreams involving all sorts of strange scenes and scenarios. Most revolve around a recurring situation where the dentist is abusing or chasing the woman, as the other patient looks on helplessly. These bizarre scenes take place in a nite-club, an apartment building, a shopping mall, a strange and distorted fun-house type ride, and even a car-wash. Once the pair are awakened, they leave together to enjoy a relaxing sail-boat ride, but has the dream really ended? Visually, DAYDREAM is an original and engrossing film. It's obvious that special attention was paid to elements such as lighting, set design, wardrobe, etc...the problem I found, is that the visual elements were all I really got from this one. The inclusion of uncensored hardcore sex scenes is a welcome change from the typically fogged or pixellated shots in most pinku films - but honestly, most of the few hardcore scenes that are present are drawn-out and unarousing. I definitely found DAYDREAM to be an "interesting" film, I just can't say that I really loved it. Several scenes were dull and uneventful, and I feel the film could have been trimmed down by several minutes to make it a bit more streamlined. Regardless, fans of bizarre pinku material or surreal art-house films should definitely give DAYDREAM a look...7/10
