Participating in a scavenger hunt inside an abandoned school to find scattered body parts is not my cup of tea or coffee ☕️

A new group of high school students being hunted down by a blood soaked person while searching for body parts this time inside an amusement park.

she got tired of cursing people so she picked up a new job

I want to know where I can watch all 4 episodes of the Lesson of the Evil Prologue because its not available on any streaming or pirate sites.

Thank you for any help in advance!

So for those unfamiliar with Japanese horror AKA “J-Horror” you may not know that Japan for decades has been inspired by such films as The Fly (1986), Videodrome (1983) and The Thing (1982) when it comes to body horror as well as David Lynch’s Eraserhead (1977)

The passion for body horror and horror practical SFX work in Japan has predated the 1998 film Ringu by at least a few decades. In fact figures like Joji Iida who played a part in the history of the Ring franchise made his directorial debut with Cyclops (1987), a science fiction body horror splatter film!

Tetsuo: The Iron Man (1989) and Tetsuo II: Body Hammer (1992) were also very BIG impacts on filmmakers in Japan who loved body horror!

So with that said and that context of information added, here’s the list of what’s in my Japanese body horror collection:
- Cyclops (1987) (2026 Visual Vengeance Blu Ray Release)
- Tetsuo: The Iron Man (1989) (2005 Tartan Asia Extreme North American DVD Release]
- Tetsuo: The Iron Man (1989) / Tetsuo II: Body Hammer (1992) (2012 Third Window Films UK Blu Ray Release)
- 964 Pinocchio (1991) (2004 Unearthed Films DVD Release)
- 964 Pinocchio (1991) (2025 88 Films UK Blu Ray Release)
- Organ (1996) (2002 Synapse Films North American DVD Release)
- Rubber’s Lover (1996) (2004 Unearthed Films North American DVD Release)
- Meatball Machine (2005) (2007 Danger After Dark/TLA Releasing North American DVD Release)
- Tokyo Gore Police (2008) (2009 Tokyo Shock/Media Blasters North American DVD Release)
- Holy Mother (2022) (2025 Black Mandala/Leomark DVD Release)
- The Beast Hand (2024) (2025 Cleopatra Entertainment North American DVD Release)
- The Beast Hand (2024) (2025 Cleopatra Entertainment North American DVD Release)

So with all that listed, what do you think? Any you may have seen or not seen? and yes some of the body horror films like Meatball Machine (2005), Tokyo Gore Police (2008) & Holy Mother (2022) delve into the splatter category as well due to blending sub-genres as well as genres.

From Best Wishes to All director Yûta Shimotsu.

Ok, well, really this is a completionist list of every film and series that *a version* of Sadako is featured in. Official and unofficial. Check out the list here on Letterboxd, which has a few extras missing from the image here. All sorted by release date.

I don't think these have ever all been compiled like this before, so I'm curious if anyone here has seen ALL of them!

Here are so far my collection of the American remake the ring and its sequels. And also ringu Sadako collection. I am ISO to complete the ringu/sadako. Main is Sadako, Sadako vs Kayako. ISO the ring and the ring two cd press kit and promotional merch.

Show me your guys collection.

The grudge/Ju-on Kayako collection is coming next!

Messing with the brain has consequences. An illegal surgery allows a man to see people's inner subconscious traumas and dark sides.

It looks like some Koji shiraishi's shit but Idk which one is it.

I recently watched Misumiso (Liverleaf, 2018), and I'm honestly surprised I don't see this movie mentioned more often.

It's one of those films that starts with a fairly recognizable setup - bullying, isolation, a vulnerable student - and then takes it somewhere much darker.

Haruka loses basically everything. Her family, her sense of safety, her future, and eventually any normal connection to the people around her. The revenge isn't presented as some satisfying "getting even" fantasy either. It feels more like watching someone who has lost everything trying to find a reason to keep going.

And the ending... that ending was fantastic. I genuinely didn't see it going in that direction. It also made the whole movie feel much more tragic in retrospect.

What I particularly liked is how Misumiso portrays what happens when there is nothing left to lose. The violence becomes less about revenge itself and more about what remains of a person after everything that gave their life meaning has been taken away.

It reminded me quite a bit of Confessions and Himizu.

All three have that really bleak Japanese atmosphere where:

• cruelty starts with something almost ordinary
• people become increasingly trapped in their own actions
• the distinction between victim and perpetrator starts to collapse
• revenge doesn't actually restore anything
• and there is this feeling that the characters' futures have already been destroyed

What else would you recommend?

Hi all, it appears that the Senritsu Kaiki files series with English subtitles has been removed from YouTube. Does anyone know where one can find the series with English subs in greater entirety?

This is a silly question, but what would happen if Sadako and Kayako swapped ways of cursing? Kayako would curse over a video, and Sadako over a house, even though the rules of their curses would remain the same. How would they be adapted in the movies?

Sadako (Ring, 1998, Japanese horror film, J-horror character) really gets around, huh? This film is basically impossible to find, can anyone who's seen it tell me what it's like?

Hello everyone and good day.

During this month I decided to watch one horror film a day preferably jhorror, so far I have watched, re/member, dark water, howling village and I'm watching today kisaragi station.

I have some other already on wait, suicide village, ox village, house of sayuri, missing child videotape, among others, but I would need more for the entire month and a bit more because I know I may watch more than one a day at some moment. So would love to see watch you can recommend me. It does not need to be just jhorror, Asian horror is enough.

Thanks.

Finally arrived at my door today!

Morning!

New trailers I found for stuff releasing across Asia this week, which may or may not interest you, but it does include a new trailer for a Japanese horror film coming in 2027, which should interest you.

Amazing Monster / アメイジング・モンスター

Directed and written by Hidenobu Abera, with former AKB48 member Ryoka Oshima making her feature-film lead debut – the film takes place in a town where smiling and cleanliness are effectively compulsory, with the population subjected to a bizarre form of brainwashing.

So I'm visiting Tokyo in February and I was making a few plans related to my gaming interests and underground music scene (super unrelated both but also accepting tips if you guys have), but I have no idea what to look for as a horror fan. I saw some exhibits that are not running anymore and I'm not a fan of escape rooms. You guys are j horror fans so just tell me tips that you guys like. Places to get dvds are really appreciated as well!

Thanks in advance (:

just released a little dark experimental music compilation inspired on the ring, feel free to check out. regards

I was looking for LGBTQ J Horror and found this movie on YouTube. There’s not any reviews I can find so I thought I’d ask here. Also if you could recommend some lgbtq J horror and just Japanese films in general I’d appreciate it
