    I don’t think people waiting to be born in 10 years should be discussing those topics

      You can watch From Beyond or Rabid.

      If you want something very out there, Dr. Caligari (the 80s one) is truly something different. I haven’t seen the original. A lot of erotic elements and body horror in there. You’ll know in 10 minutes if you hate it.

      I’d say Under the Skin might be erotic body horror. I thought the social commentarfy of this is great, but wouldn’t watch it a third time.

      It Follows could be considered erotic horror I guess, bit wouldn’t say so myself.

      Really anything Cronenberg and some of the Lovecraft movies are good. From Beyond has Jeffrey Combs.

      I think there’s a sweet spot on the 80s for body horror with a recent revival.

      Giallo films probably overlap as a subgenre with not with body horror so much, they’re often proto-slashers. There’s also a lot of Canadian films of that time due to the tax credits that ended up erotic horror, which is why we have Cronenberg.

      There’s kind of a resergence – Succubus, Suitable Flesh. I hear there a lot of anime, but that’s not my thing.

      Emotional toxicity. Toxic yuri usually involves “toxic”, unhealthy, abusive, taboo, or otherwise problematic relationships between 2 women

    Okay… So I like body horror films and my circle had been talking a lot about the fucking Epstein cannibalism shit.

    And now I can’t fucking tell if this is supposed to be haha that’s so bizarre or a legitimate circle of interests.

    I don’t really know what yaoi is, I know it’s some weird anime porn, and I kinda think a lot of hebtai is problematic. Not all, it’s an art, but uhhh… some of that shit around ages abd consent is not great.

      Yaoi is just gay anime/manga stories (including a lot of porn). Usually in a specific style, with archtypes of men. Traditionally more female-targeted.
