31 Nights of Halloween: Me and Me

Me and Me (2021)
Starring: Yuki Shinyokoyama
Director: Yuki Shinyokoyama
Rating: Seven of Ten Stars

A man (Shinykoyama) keeps having encounters with a man who looks just like him.

 

During the "off-season" this past year, we introduced visitors to the short ghost movies of filmmaker and artist Yuki Shinyokoyama. We think this non-ghost film is one of his best yet (as well as a nice upping-of-the-ante on the doppelganger myths.

We hope you enjoy "Me and Me"... and that you may avoid your doppelgangers during these 31 Nights of Halloween!

Rating: Six of Ten Stars

The witness to a particularly gory traffic accident (Shinyokoyama) is haunted by the angry spirit of the victim.

One thing that's constant about Japanese ghosts is that they don't give a rat's ass who they target; guilty, innocent... if you happen to be in the general area when their life ends, you're in deep trouble! As we see in this offering from Japanese filmmaker Yuki Shinyokoyama...

Terror on the 13th: Cursed Neck

 
I recently came across writer/artist/filmmaker Yuki Shinyokoyama's YouTube channel, and he has a bunch of really interesting little horror filmlets there. They are a bit rough around the edges and the special effects leave a little to be desired, but they are still neat, ghost-centric horror shorts.

Here's the first of a handful of films that'll be featured here at Terror Titans, as we wait for the 31 Nights of Halloween to return. Here's hoping it doesn't put you off hiking!
