Horror Based Anime

[mlauzon]

Does anyone know of any horror based anime, the ones that I'd consider 'horror based' are:

Blood: The Last Vampire
Blood+ (the sequel to BtLV)

Vampire Hunter D
Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust (the sequel to VHD)

Granted both of those are about vampires, and really the only horror based anime I know of as they are the only ones I've seen, well except Blood+ as I've never seen it.

Check out Perfect Blue and Little Petshop of Horrors, there's many more I could suggest but all my thought processes have encountered a fatal error. Please reboot.

[Dante'sInferno]

Check out all of Hellsing.

Violence Jack (One scene with a chainsaw, awesome!)
Wicked City (seen it)
X (seen it, but not the TV series that came after it, or Tokyo Babylon which X is a remake of)


I've seen Battle Royale which is based on the book which I read, not the manga which I've also read. I do plan on seeing Ichi the Killer, and I've heard of Tomie.

I'd rather watch anime, I tend not to read manga.

there is alot of horror based anime. but imo u seen the best one already.
Vampire Hunter D: Blood Lust

VHD:B sucked, the first one was so much better!

Where's Urotsukidoji: Legend of the Overfiend? graphic and goes for the jugular anime that started the whole demon tentacle hentai trend.

[mlauzon]

Not a fan of hentai.

[HarryCanyon]

Well Urotsukidoji is more then hentai, it's a very Clive Barker/Rob Zombie-like mind trip into the apocalypse and will blow your mind. Do you think hentai gives anime a bad name?

[mlauzon]

It's still hentai, and I am not interested in watching cartoons have sex.

Resident evil
Dead Space
Fear's of the dark (Not seen it tho, but looks/sounds very interesting)

And if you're into extreme gory violence check out "Fist of the north star".

Elfen Lied, has some of you have already pointed out. It's very cute but very bloody and violent.
I like anime but regretfully am not that familiar with it yet, so I'll be sure to look up some of the ones you guys listed!
