Horrors Of Malformed Men (1969)Director: Teruo Ishii
Writer: Rampo Edogawa
After escaping from an asylum, young medical student Hirosuke assumes the identity of a dead man in order to solve the mystery of a weird doppelganger whose picture he sees in the newspaper. Traveling to faraway Panorama Island, he discovers a mad scientist surgically remaking normal human beings into misshapen monsters…but that is only the beginning. Hirosuke soon learns the horrible truth about the island and his own family’s shameful past, and finds himself plunged into the depths of incest, murder, and madness.
'Japanese exploitation legend Teruo Ishii's horror opus, which is basicly a twisted, weirded out version of island of lost souls. I waited years to see this and thankfully it delivered. Comes highly recommended but only suitable to fans of the bizarre cinema.'
