The Horror of Junji Ito

Horror is a joy, though it frightens us and makes unnerved, however we still find ourselves to laugh by the end of fright don't we? Some time ago there was an author (Junji Ito) that I found quite intriguing, by personality and works. Recently I have been reading some works[books/stories] specifically, 'Earthbound' has taken my interest. The images that can be seen for reading 'Earthbound' can be described as unsettling, gory and truly scary. This can be seen visually seen and felt as the hopelessness of the situation arises. With the techniques that has been used by Junji Ito it can be seen as an entertainment with a deeper meaning, a metaphor for life occurrence. It is to instill fear and makes us see light in a different way.
