If you want something very out there, Dr. Caligari (the 80s one) is truly something different. I haven't seen the original. A lot of erotic elements and body horror in there. You'll know in 10 minutes if you hate it.
I'd say Under the Skin might be erotic body horror. I thought the social commentarfy of this is great, but wouldn't watch it a third time.
It Follows could be considered erotic horror I guess, bit wouldn't say so myself.
Really anything Cronenberg and some of the Lovecraft movies are good. From Beyond has Jeffrey Combs.
I think there's a sweet spot on the 80s for body horror with a recent revival.
Giallo films probably overlap as a subgenre with not with body horror so much, they're often proto-slashers. There's also a lot of Canadian films of that time due to the tax credits that ended up erotic horror, which is why we have Cronenberg.
There's kind of a resergence -- Succubus, Suitable Flesh. I hear there a lot of anime, but that's not my thing.
Okay... So I like body horror films and my circle had been talking a lot about the fucking Epstein cannibalism shit.
And now I can't fucking tell if this is supposed to be haha that's so bizarre or a legitimate circle of interests.
I don't really know what yaoi is, I know it's some weird anime porn, and I kinda think a lot of hebtai is problematic. Not all, it's an art, but uhhh... some of that shit around ages abd consent is not great.
Yaoi is just gay anime/manga stories (including a lot of porn). Usually in a specific style, with archtypes of men. Traditionally more female-targeted.

I'm 30+ but my circle discusses cannibalism frequently. What should I do?

I don't think people waiting to be born in 10 years should be discussing those topics

What makes the Yuri toxic? We talking emotional toxicity or like a vat of cyanide toxic?
Filetternavn@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 3 pts · 170d
Emotional toxicity. Toxic yuri usually involves "toxic", unhealthy, abusive, taboo, or otherwise problematic relationships between 2 women
