The Junji Ito Horror Comic Collection, Vol. 14
by 伊藤潤二, Junji Ito
The Long Dream: 1/5, This is probably one of my least favorite Ito stories. I think it's boring, not scary, and doesn't have any of the really wild body horror Ito can give us. This one is just really a dud for me and I get irrationally angry whenever anyone tries to tell me it's good or scary.
The Story of the Mysterious Tunnel: 5/5, on the opposite side of the spectrum, I'm obsessed with this story and the last one of this issue. I think that the tension was wonderful, it was mysterious and spooky in just the right amounts. Also the visual of the ghosts zooming through the tunnel is something I won't easily forget.
Bronze Statue: 4/5, I thought this story was slightly predictable, but also really funny. It was slightly gruesome, but mostly a good haha you got what you deserved story.
Drifting Spores: 4/5, I really liked this concept and thought it was unique. I like how things spiraled pretty quickly but in a believable way.
Blood Sickness of the White Sands Village: 5/5, I really liked this story. I thought it had great tension, was unique, and had really great visuals. These are probably some of my favorite Ito visuals ever.
