Violated Angels (犯された白衣, Okasareta Hakui?) is a film made by controversial Japanese director Kōji Wakamatsu in 1967. Wakamatsu's most famous film,[1] it is based on the mass murder spree of Richard Speck in 1966.[2][3]
Plot
A young man breaks into a nurses' rooming house and one-by-one kills off the nurses therein. In the tradition of Wakamatsu's other Pinku eiga, there is lots of sexuality and nudity. However most of the actual murders take place off screen.

Production
The film was shot in just three days, probably much of it improvised and because of the low budget, many of the actresses were not professionals.[4]
Criticism
Like many films of this nature, Violated Angels was called anti-feminist and misogynistic by some critics. In Film As A Subversive Art, a book on underground cinema, Amos Vogel praises Wakamatsu's artistic talent, yet pans the film for its "...anti-feminist sadism which is not based on any ideological explanation and finally contributes misanthropic flavour to his work."
