If you loved Meatball Machine Kodoku, try Vampire Girl vs. Frankenstein Girl

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Yoshihiro Nishimura, and they both carry the body horror, playful, unhinged mood tags, and they sit in Comedy / Horror territory. If that's the register that drew you to Meatball Machine Kodoku, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Vampire Girl vs. Frankenstein Girl is

Japan. Cherry blossom snow. Severed arm. A mad doctor reanimates a gothic lolita. She craves the blood of one specific classmate. Another student, rebuilt from spare parts, wants him too. Nishimura-school splatter madness, plus romantic angst.
