Body Horror
Description
<p><b>Body</b> <b>horror</b> or <b>biological</b> <b>horror</b> might make up one of cinema’s most disgusting film subgenres in which the horror is principally derived from the graphic or psychologically disturbing violations of the human body. </p><p>These violations may manifest through aberrant sex, mutations, mutilation, zombification, gratuitous violence, disease, decay, deformity, parasitism or unnatural movements of the body.</p><p>In this list I have rounded up some of the greatest body horror movies ever made. Some are full-blown horror movies, some are comedies, some are surrealist head trips, but all are prime examples of what cinema can be when gore goes wild.</p>
