10 Movies So Crazy They Shouldn't Exist

7. Dead Sushi

Forget Attack of the Killer Tomatoes, for Deddo Sushi - marketed internationally as Dead Sushi - goes one better and features some killer sushi that most certainly bites back.

Here, we have Keiko, a failed sushi chef who runs away to start a new life as a hotel waitress after not being able to live up to her legendary sushi chef father. Before you know it, Keiko has to battle demonic, toothy sushi in a movie that feels like Troma made a Sonny Chiba picture.

Complete with some genuinely impressive fight scenes, a very solid amount of gore, a fun sense of slapstick, sushi sex scenes, and one of the most disgusting kisses in film history - let's just say two people, one egg - Dead Sushi is nothing if not memorable, fully embracing the insanity of its premise.

Given that Dead Sushi is from writer/director Noboru Iguchi - a porn director who transitioned into mainstream film with the likes of The Machine Girl, RoboGeisha, and Zombie Ass: Toilet of the Dead - it's no surprise the picture is a smidge over the top. Somehow, though, the craziness of Dead Sushi actually well.
