Top 10 Japanese Horror Movies That Actually Made Us Laugh

We all need a good laugh now and then, and these films provide just that. The kind of terror that makes you laugh all the way through. Strange but amusing, wild yet terrifying.

1. Exte

Exte is a hair-frightening film from 2007. It is about a corpse girl and her hair, as well as a mad guy with hair in his house. This film is a horror-comedy, no matter how ludicrous it seems. But why do we have hair? Assuming the girl is kidnapped and becomes a victim of organ traffickers, the main character is an otaku who likes hair, and the main character is a lunatic (Kuriyama). Even though the soundtrack isn't very memorable, the cast was fantastic! The film concentrates on the body of a dead girl, but it also features excellent portrayals of minor individuals. This film is for you if you enjoy social issues and have a sense of humor. His horror flick is about cursed hair, which causes anything horrible to happen to anyone who wears hair extensions. The hair is cursed since the women who possessed it were organ harvesting victims. A mortuary attendant presents a body with hair that is still growing and sells or gives the extensions. This is where the film's other half begins. Yuko (the lovely Chiaki Kuriyama), a hairstylist apprentice, shares a modest flat with her roommate Yuki, who is being abused by Yuko's wicked half-sister. It's amazing how the film exists in two realms and then merges them. The visual effects are rather nice. For example, in all of the ultra-cliché conversation, which was recounted in an opaque third-person manner, the hair salon was named after a French serial murderer.

 

2. House (1977)

Nobuhiko Obayashi's comedy horror film is directed and produced in Japan. It's about a high school student who goes to her aunt's house with her six friends, but instead of having a good time, they encounter paranormal phenomena. In some ways, the film's style is strange and dark, which may confuse some. One after the other, they all face a horrific finish in front of them. The film's style is unusual and dark in certain areas, which may confuse some viewers. It's like a bizarre horror fable set in a comic book universe. viewers. It's like a strange horror fable set in a comic-style setting. Hausu is by far the strangest Haunted House film I've ever seen. The girls spend their time at the home of one of the girls' aunts. But, unbeknownst to them all, the aunt isn't who she claims to be. There's also Snowflake, a cat with a lot of issues. Things don't look to be slowing down as the supernatural continues to touch the girls. Reading back over what I just stated, the movie appears to be less intriguing However, after you view this film, you'll quickly discover that it's unlike anything else you've ever seen. filmed in a vibrant, vivid style and blended with all levels of production, with a superb soundtrack. You create a unique hybrid genre film when you combine great production values with a children's movie mood, then add blood, violence, and nudity.

 

3. Stacy: Attack Of The Schoolgirl Zombies

Stacy is a well-written film that is also silly. It's about a group of schoolgirls who transform into zombies after seeing a joyful utopia; they appear to be in love before becoming flesh-eating undead known as "Stacy." Though it is a zombie horror comedy, I believe the ending scene implies that if males could love high school girls without shame or harassment, murder would not occur. Maybe people have different perspectives, but it's a fun film! You might think it's not so good at first glance, but the film proves you wrong! What more do you need than cute zombie babes and a great plot? The film is divided into two plots: one follows a medical student who joins a killing squad to save his "pen pal" Momo, and the other is a bit of a romance between Shibu-san, a middle-aged puppeteer, and Eiko, a girl in the latter days of her pre-zombie state.  The film's gore is due to the first listed plotline. There is enough decapitation, flesh-eating, and general violence to satisfy horror enthusiasts. Unfortunately, while there is a lot of gore, the quality of the gore effects is inconsistent at best. The decapitations seem implausible, and one of the ex victims is a mannequin. The other plot thread is less enjoyable, but it is significantly more original. Shibu-use san's puppetry to tell Eiko a narrative about a toy cat is spellbinding. Eiko's frenzied cries to be "repeatedly murdered" and her most considerate chainsaw gift contribute to a dark undertone of hilarity. Natsuki Kato portrays Eiko admirably, giving her a sympathetic potential zombie. With a corny climax, the film tries to weave these two storylines together, but it could have been done without the sentimental epilogue.

 

4. Unholy Woman

Unholy Woman/Kowai Onna is a compilation of three short films that are unrelated to each other. Rattle Rattle, Takuji Suzuki, and Keisuke Toyoshima directed Rattle Rattle, Hagane, and The Inheritance, respectively. The first part, rattle, is about a woman who is pursued by an evil monster in the red. Rattle Rattle, the chase scenario that appears to be a dream sequence. The terrifying monster lady in red initially appears to be an unsightly male with large eyes who becomes crazier as the film proceeds.  It appears amusing at first, especially when she knocks the ugly lady out with a vase to the head, but you'll get shivers as it keeps appearing like a zombie and chasing her till she wakes up in a hospital room. She thinks she understands what's going on, but the monster ultimately emerges, and the cycle begins again. Great horror timing and prosthetics, but the crappy video effects may detract from the overall scary impression. In the second chapter, a man complies with his boss's request to take out his sister, which leads to the most harrowing voyage he has ever experienced. The second piece was strange and amusing, while the third had a woman and kid returning to their ancestral home. The mother is possessed by an older spirit (one who killed a relative in a previous life) who wishes to be with the living child.

 

5. My Soul Is Slashed

Consider the possibility that the company you worked for has betrayed you. Already having a rough day, an incident occurs, and the hospital tries to save you but gives you the wrong blood! Count Dracula's blood, not just any blood! This is a genuinely unique vampire film that is also one of the most beautiful and hilarious ever made. Shusuke Kaneko, the director of several recent "Gamera" films as well as the fantastic "Summer Vacation 1999," deserves praise for producing a dream that so expertly combines so many disparate aspects. Ken Ogata, a company employee, is killed. He is accidentally resurrected after being transfused with Dracula's blood. Narumi Yasuda, a Dracula expert, takes Ogata under her wing (pardon the pun) so that she can study him. Ogata, who was married and had a daughter, had to face the fact that his wife had moved on without him. Hikari Ishida, his adorable daughter, must learn to embrace her new father and reassess her pain. Many serious issues are addressed here with amazing care and ingenuity. The film's vampire baggage resembles both Universal and Hammer's methods, as well as early Toho efforts like "Lake of Dracula." The images are stunning, and the music is incredible. The romantic subplot between the revived Ogata and Ms. Yasuda (a vision of heavenly feminine beauty) is heartbreaking, and the scene in which Drac bites his new love is erotically intense.

 

6. Dead Sushi

All I can say is that it's a strange film; I wasn't planning on writing a review in first-person narration, but this film demands it! I have no idea what I saw; yeah, it falls under the category of horror, but it's so strange. Sushi that comes to life when it's hungry is a silly yet brilliant concept. It's a strange comedy, so that's what it is! The chefs vs. Killer Sushi and his henchmen. The protagonist of "Dead Sushi" is Keiko, who eludes her father's strict tutelage in the art of sushi creation and martial arts. She flees her family and takes a job at a broken-down inn run by a married couple. A group of visitors arrives at the inn, but they bring a secret with them: once released, the sushi comes to life and causes havoc among the humans. This time, individuals have turned into food... This comedy/horror film genre is peculiar to Japan, and you either love it or despise it—you either get it or you don't. As with other genre films such as "Samurai Princess," "RoboGeisha," "Tokyo Gore Police," and others, Noboru Iguchi directed this picture, which was released in 2012. If you enjoy strange films, this is the film for you! The film's gonzo attitude and utter commitment to its ridiculousness keep it from falling apart completely, and there are some terrific martial arts sequences, especially from Keiko-Rina Takeda, a rising martial arts star who was still a teenager when she filmed this film.  Although some may object to the copious bloodletting, it is done in such a way that it is humorous rather than disgusting. It's got everything unusual about it, plus it's humorous. Blood plays an important role in this.

 

7. Yoroi Samurai Zombie

Is it possible to have too much blood in an action horror film? In a nice way, Japanese films are always wacky. This film is darker and more ruthless, and it doesn't appear to address the goofy aspect. It's more serious than goofy in tone. This film follows a family who embarks on a journey and finds themselves in a ghost town, only to realize that the area is cursed and surrounded by zombies. Typically, Japanese zombie films are silly and spoofs are frequently extreme to the point of absurdity. Samurai Zombie, on the other hand, was a more serious zombie film that eschewed the usual comedic elements found in Japanese zombie films. The story and appearance of "Samurai Zombie" were darker and more savage. The plot revolves around a family who are kidnapped at gunpoint by a man and a woman while driving through the countryside. The countryside, however, is cursed, and a walking dead zombie roams the streets, looking for the living to fall prey to his blade.  The plot moves along smoothly, and we feel as though we are right there with the characters as they suffer and are hounded. Unlike many other Japanese zombie films, the zombies in "Samurai Zombie" were not simply Japanese people with grey skin and dark eyes. No, they went all out with the costumes and make-up in this film, and the zombies in the film looked fantastic. However, there was one thing that I didn't agree with, and that was the excessive splashing of blood every time someone was beheaded; it seemed a little excessive. But, given that Asian films are known for being extravagant, it was only a minor annoyance.

 

8. Neck

A gang of four friends who attempted to build a neck machine? What a strange name and an even stranger film. Whatever the case may be, it fails, and their nightmare begins. It also includes a love story. They come in the form of a variety of otherworldly creatures and monsters. It piques your interest because the plot is intriguing and humorous. It's a good film that's inventive in every way. Sugina Mayama (Saki Aibu), a senior graduate student, is Tomokazu Shudo's (Junpei Mizobata) first crush. Tomokazu has problems admitting his affections to the popular student, but one day he is invited to Sugina Mayama's research lab. Tomkazu intends to reveal his actual thoughts to her during this meeting.  When Tomokazu first enters, he notices a large wooden box in the middle of the lab, which is dark. Sugina tells Tomokazu that he appears to be terrified, then shoves him into the box! Tomokazu is told that while being placed in the box, he will see a horror movie created from his thoughts, with only his neck and head protruding from the box.  Sugina's "The Neck Machine" will have Tomokazu as its first test subject. While watching monsters, the technology aims to turn individuals into monsters from the neck down. Sugina enlists the assistance of a childhood buddy, Takashi Gori (Yuta Hiraoka), who is now a horror writer known as Mataro Echizen...

 

9. Wild Zero

It's time for some rock 'n' roll!! This film is the epitome of having a good time while still being in danger. The vigor, the hilarity, the intriguing plot! Everything is in place. Most zombie films are serious, but this one isn't. The mash-up of rock 'n' roll with zombies is both inventive and entertaining. There are some explicit scenes in it. The plot revolves around a garage band and their quest to save the Earth from aliens and their zombie army. "Wild Zero" is one of those films that is tough to fault. When you watch Wild Zero, your heart will race, your adrenaline will rush through your veins, and your limbs will tremble. I've spoken too much. After all, this is a movie about rock 'n' roll. Guitar Wolf, as a group, proves to be superhuman in their capacity to stay cool. The last twenty minutes will blast your head with trash and pandemonium! This is the ultimate feel-good film. There's a lot of action, speed, and foolish zombies. Exploding skulls, random extraterrestrial encounters, and even more sudden and unexplainable superpowers are all part of the story. The trio of rock 'n'roll cool are Jar Wolf, Bass Wolf, and Drum Wolf. They're up against rock 'n'roll's biggest foe: squares. The Captain, who appears in an all-white, skin-tight suit at the start, epitomizes Square. He and those he represents aren't interested in rock 'n' roll; they're only interested in money and power. This may appear to be a conventional rock 'n' roll film, but it isn't. The film takes an unexpected turn after the initial fight between the squares and the Wolf Trio. The film eventually transforms into a survival horror film.

 

10. Tokyo Gore Police

This film is for you if you enjoy gore and a lot of blood! Ruka, the primary character, is stunning and has a fantastic sense of style. This film will either make you disgusted or excited that you watched it.  In this film, there are creatures known as "engineers" that have the ability to turn their flesh wounds into weapons. Ruka is a police officer who is hell-bent on finding her father's killer. Eihi Shiina, best known for her role as the mad girl in Takashi Miike's Audition, plays a police officer in Tokyo. Her specialization is tracking down "engineers," genetically enhanced people who can resurrect their flesh wounds and use them as weapons. Each amputated limb generates about 30 litres of synthetic blood. A film like this might easily become repetitive and hence dull, but Tokyo Gore Police's actual appeal stems from its never-ending ingenuity. Yoshihiro Nishimura, who has worked as a makeup artist for the majority of his career, keeps upping the ante by showing us something horrifying we've never seen before in each sequence. It's all quite repulsive and nasty. There's a lot of action here, as well as a family backstory. The show's star is a goddess cop with a million-dollar physique and impeccable fashion sense. She's a lovely lady. Unfortunately, no credit is given to the schoolgirl prostitute. If you like skinny, lovely women and gore, you'll enjoy this film.
