Iggy Horror Thread III: What Scares the Japanese?

[IggytheBorg]

Methinks Tim's after DM8's old job title of Mr. Thorough. Well done, sah!

Thanks, but I was more inspired by the things I saw at Chiller on Saturday. There was one guy who had a table and wall covered in Japanese genre films - some sentai and Ultraman films, some drama, and some horror, including Evil of Dracula and Lake of Dracula (saw Lake not too long ago - it was OK), along with Ringu and some Miike films (almost pulled the trigger on those, but I can get those elsewhere and not as bootlegs).

More J-horror flicks were available, but I wasn't sure of the quality. Lots of copies of Ichi the Killer, and I think someone had a copy of Flower of Flesh and Blood... at least I think it was (never saw that one, only heard about it).

I just found those over at the Happy Video Game Nerd's site. Apparently, a survival horror video game from 1989, that's right on the NES!

Coming soon (Cuz I'm too busy prepping yet another trial to write it now): Iggy's Horror Thread IV: Keepin' It In the Family!

[Timothy225]

Is this family as in Mommy and Daddy deciding to eat junior, or we talking families like the Sawyers from Texas Chainsaw Massacre?

I'm down either way.

Trial got recycled. Stress: abated for the nonce. Tonight: a cigar, some beer and a brandy-new Iggy horror thread. You lucky bastards.
