Crazy Fruit aka Crazed Fruit (狂った果実 Kurutta kajitsu?) is a 1981 Japanese film in Nikkatsu's Roman porno series, directed by Kichitaro Negishi. Both this film and the earlier (1956) version by Nikkatsu, Crazed Fruit, were based on a novel of the same name by Shintaro Ishihara.
A working class young man, Tetsuo, who distrusts all rich people, falls in love with a girl, Chika, from an affluent family. He has a difficult time, but love survives despite the problems.
The Weissers call the plot "a sadly contrived story" and award it two and a half stars out of four, but laud Yūji Honma's "intense performance" which made the film a major hit for the Nikkatsu studio.
Crazy Fruit was released as a DVD by Uplink (アップリンク) on May 23, 2003.
