Junji Ito’s nightmares step into the real world in this live-action horror anthology. Across thirteen chilling tales, ordinary lives are pulled into the uncanny, where beauty becomes obsession, bodies betray their owners, and familiar places twist into something grotesque. From the fogbound terror of “Lovesickness” to stories of phantom pain, cursed music, and impossible transformations, each episode brings Ito’s singular imagination to life in flesh and blood.
