132. Not Your Grandparents Horror Manga: The Ito Junji Spotlight (encore)

Happy Halloween everyone! In celebration of the event and our short hiatus, we decided to rerelease episode 18 from the 2020 vault! If you've been sleeping under a rock for the last 30 years, it's time to step out into the world of walking zombie-fish, hypnotizing spirals, and an immortal succubus named Tomie. This is the world created by Ito Junji, the legendary mangaka who got his start in horror more than 30 years ago with Tomie. We will look at Tomie, Gyo, and Uzumaki, his most familiar works, and talk about what makes us scared on this Halloween special. -Amelia will be at Anime NYC Nov 17-19th with Lewd Driip so check her our there! https://lewddriip.com -We'll be back Nov 30th with a Mamoru Hasoda Retrospective!
