Body Horror Movies, Ranked

From the last video store in the universe, we’re diving headfirst into the fleshscape. This is the episode where skin melts, bones twist, metal fuses, and the human form becomes… negotiable.

We’re ranking five of the most nightmarish entries the genre has ever produced:

1. Tetsuo: The Iron Man (1989): Industrial noise. Screaming metal. The body as weapon. 2. Society (1989): The shunting heard ’round the world. 3. Body Melt (1993): Wellness culture taken to its liquifying extreme. 4. Thanatomorphose (2012): Slow, rotting decay as an art-film endurance test. 5. Possessor (2020): Cronenbergian mind/body invasion for the digital age.

We break down the gore, the metaphors, the transgressions, and the sheer cinematic audacity of filmmakers who dared to ask, “What if humanity was just… obsolete?”

Press play and prepare for mutation. Only one of these atrocities will survive the ranking.
