Horrors of Malformed Men
Banned for decades! The most notorious Japanese horror film ever made!
Directed by Teruo Ishii
Produced by Toei Company
A transgressive, visually grotesque descent into madness and bodily horror on an isolated island, driven by surreal dread and existential unease.
After escaping from an insane asylum, a medical student assumes the identity of a mysterious dead man, who appears to be his doppelganger, and gets lured to a sinister island ruled by a mad scientist and his malformed men.
