BTV Ep299 Eric Myford - Obscure Japan - Conton (1987), Cyclops (1987) & The Boy From Hell (2004)




Beyond The Void - Horror Podcast show

Summary: We return with Eric Myford as Guest to talk about 3 Obscure Japanese Horror Shorts that are about an hour long each. These are ones that some didn't even make it past VHS. Yes, and most can be watched free on YOUTUBE! However one of them has no subs... First we kick it off with CYCLOPS (1987) about a bunch of mutants living in todays world that are getting gathered up for some nefarious purposes and it all ends in a pretty gross way. Then CONTON (1987) Another splatter fest that is rather homemade about a boy who's going to college and dreams of monsters. His real life starts crossing over into the dream world for a fantastic finish. Then we review THE BOY FROM HELL (2004) From Hideshi Hino's Theater of Horror set of shorts. It's about a boy who dies too early and his mother wants him back so bad she does a ritual to bring him back as a blood thirsty mutant hungry for people. It's a jam packed obscure episode that was a blast. JOIN US!
