Evil Dead Trap and Sweet Home

Summary When discussing Japanese horror movies, fans often bring up the late '90s to early 2000s classics like Ju-on: The Grudge or Audition. Decades earlier, in the '80s, the genre was starting to become more experimental, ultimately leading it to evolve and inspire what we today know as a more customary movie subgenre, j-horror.

The special effects of the movie were made by Shinichi Wakasa, who became so renowned that ended up working making monster suits for famous movies to come, like Godzilla. 8 Battle Heater Heat Up The Horror Close Director Jôji Iida's horror-comedy Battle Heater is a horrifying, confusing movie. It surrounds the events of a rock guitarist who turns a kotatsu heater into a death-dealing creature after removing its protective seal. This demented plot leads to incredibly disturbing scenes like the kotatsu growing fangs or the close-ups of its disgusting pulsating metallic skin.

The movie struck Japanese viewers so much that a Fanicom game of the same name was later released. Its iconic use of shadows and practical special effects are well executed, shining in scenes like the one including a medieval weapon used by infants. Its mind-blowing intricacies, like the passing of the child being related to the painting itself, are also something worth pointing out.

While Guzoo: The Thing Forsaken by God features a large amount of over-the-top gore, it still qualifies as a must-watch for fans of WTF cinema. The final ten minutes are very remarkable as the characters are chased around by the slimy critter, and are given a glimpse of hope before ultimately ending in the most baffling way.
