Japanese Devils (or Riben Guizi 日本鬼子) is a Japanese documentary about the war crimes committed by the Imperial Japanese Army during World War II.
Controversies stirred up over the credibility of the movie. All the 14 former soldiers appeared in the film were ex-POWs of China and were subjected to a long "re-education" by the Chinese government in Fushun War Criminals Management Centre.
The Chinese term Riben Guizi is a common ethnic slur against the Japanese people (See Anti-Japanese sentiment in China).

Avec une équipe du Signal Corp., Huston se rendit pendant l'automne et l'hiver 1942 dans les îles Aléoutiennes, point de départ des raids américains sur les bases japonaises de Attu et de Kiska. C'était un archipel balayé par des tempêtes continuelles dont les images donnent une vision terrifiante des conditions de vie des soldats et d'atterrissage des avions. Par cette description humaine, Huston montre sa profonde admiration, non pour la guerre en elle-même mais pour le courage des hommes qui y étaient mêlés.

They used a combination of different ways of visual, sonic and radio deception to convince the enemy of the presence of specific Army units that were in fact operating elsewhere. The unit included a large number of visual artists and designers who documented their experiences in paintings and sketches. The materiel employed in the 23rd Army Headquarters Special Troops' operations included decoys such as inflatable rubber tanks and jeeps as well as powerful loudspeaker trucks playing sound recordings of troop activity.
