After an airplane is forced to crash-land in a remote area, its passengers find themselves face-to-face with an alien force that wants to possess them body and soul, and perhaps take over the entire human race. Filled with creatively repulsive effects, including a very invasive bloblike life-form, SATO Hajime’s Goké, Body Snatcher from Hell is a pulpy, apocalyptic gross-out.

Join us for CURSED BODIES, a Halloween film series at JFT! Inspired by the “body snatcher” theme, we're delighted to present KUROSAWA Kiyoshi’s alien invasion thriller, Before We Vanish, along with SATO Hajime’s rare 1968 cult horror classic, Goké, Body Snatcher from Hell.
