  The Tim Burton Collective - Corpse Bride
The place where the stick had been opened up and a very bedraggled looking corpse emerged, a living corpse, she had been a bride, but now was barely more than a skeleton held together by shreds of skin, still wearing an old torn white silk wedding dress.
Shuddering with terror at the corpse bride's words, the two young men fled to the village where the young bride was waiting to be married.
And all their children and grandchildren and great grandchildren were always told the story of the corpse bride, and so she was not forgotten, nor was the wisdom and compassion she had taught them forgotten either.

 PIXELSURGEON | Reviews | Books | Living Corpse
Living Corpse is the fifth book in Cocoro's series, but an important one, because it takes autobiographical details from Hino's life and weaves them into a surreal horror story about a corpse that won't die and doesn't know why.
Living Corpse was first published in 1986 under the title Shi Niku no Otoko.
Although visually repulsive, the real horror in Living Corpse is of a metaphysical nature, questioning the nature of our existence and the force that keeps us alive.

 The Curse of the Living Corpse (1964) - The Bad Movie Report
Robert arrives, there's a bit of a fight scene, Deborah is rescued from the quicksand, and Philip falls in, thus fulfilling his father's prophecy of his death by suffocation.
Curse of the Living Corpse serves as a sort of bridge between all the Reading of the Will in the Old Dark House movies of the 30's to the Body Count movies of the 80's, with it's surprisingly intense, if fleeting, low-tech gore effects.
Overall, Curse of the Living Corpse is a good, competent (if formulaic) little horror film, with only the occasional piece of less-than-sterling camera work ruining the mood.

 Zinda Laash
Following a credit interlude that implies that over the years he has proceeded to wreak mayhem on the local population, a young doctor named Aqil finds his way into the lair of this villain and is welcomed by this member of the now undead.
Without the sort of efficient stagecraft that is evidenced here and elsewhere by the rest of the crew throughout the film, The Living Corpse would be much more curiosity than effective movie-making -- but as it is, the quality of the filmmaking manages to turn this genre effort into something more lasting than mere exotica.
Instead, there's a healthy respect for the abilities of talented and committed people working locally to create movies like The Living Corpse, and while there's no denial of the sometimes-cheesier aspects of these productions there's also no trace of a deprecating sneer in their overarching vision.

 Horror of Party Beach and Curse of the Living Corpse Double Bill - DVD Review - Horror Movies
Where Party Beach’s tongue remains firmly in cheek, Living Corpse is a serious period horror, and very good it is too.
Living Corpse is far more watchable that Party Beach and easily stands up on it own as a 60s horror classic.

 Monsters At Play: The Living Corpse Review
Obviously aimed after the American Universal vampire flicks, The Living Corpse is just another fascinating cinematic attempt at cashing in on that crazy vampire craze that the kids love so much.
At times spooky and other times silly, The Living Corpse may be a lot of things, but remains consistently unique and without a doubt, like no other to come before or after it throughout.
Between the wooden performances (which are oddly effective), impromptu musical numbers, gothic castle sets and crazy over the top characters, The Living Corpse stands in a class all its own.

At least I had heard of The Living Corpse, as discussed in a few books and magazine articles about obscure, international horror and cult cinema attractions.
But don't expect camp from The Living Corpse, as this is a serious, straight horror film and for the most part, it all works.

 TIME.com: Corpse Blackamon -- Sep. 23, 1929 -- Page 1   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
A favorite for long with Argentine circusgoers was "Blackamon, the Living Corpse." A swarthy, stocky Italian, Corpse Blackamon favored satin turbans and gaudy oriental robes, fascinated the steeply banked audiences in Buenos Aires' permanent single-ring circus by sticking pins through his cheeks and arms.
A few months ago the original Corpse Blackamon, finding the long evenings in his coffin cramping and monotonous, gave up his original act, purchased a hussar jacket and a whip and toured South America, sticking his head into lions' mouths twice daily.
Last week the rococo façade of Buenos Aires' Cirque Cordoba billed another "Blackamon, the Living Corpse." The new Blackamon, who had been one of the original Living Corpse's assistants, omitted his former master's self perforations last week, but successfully went into his trance, was buried in his glass-fronted coffin.

 Metroactive Movies | 'Corpse Bride'
She is rather a knockout, count the ways: the fine-boned hand, the flush mark of a rotted spot on her cheek, the appealing azure shadows under her eyes, the winsome way her right eyeball keeps popping out.
Hauled by this bony arm into the land of the dead, Victor finds himself in the embarrassing predicament of being affianced to a live lady and married to a dead one.
Oddly, Corpse Bride opens against another ghost affair, with the phantom of Reese Witherspoon begging not to be unplugged next to her bed-ridden comatose self.

 The Curse of the Living Corpse at Brian's Drive-In Theater
The Curse of the Living Corpse is Del Tenney's best directorial effort, and this film led the drive-in double bill with Tenney's best-known film, The Horror of Party Beach (1964).
Shot in 1963 on a creepy estate in Connecticut purchased by his father-in-law, Tenney created the story of the film after coming up with the title; he used the most frequently occuring words in then-contemporary horror films: curse, living, and corpse.
Released in May 1964, Curse of the Living Corpse, along with the second half of the bill, The Horror of Party Beach, earned more than a million dollars in the initial release, a tidy sum given the budget of about $120,000 for production of both films.

 The Horror of Party Beach & The Curse of the Living Corpse DVD Review
The barrel slowly sinks to the bottom of the sea, where it inevitably bursts open—spilling its contents onto a skeleton.
One barely of toxic waste plus one skeleton equals a bunch of scantily clad women running for their lives.
Corpse, however, is more of a fl comedy than schlock.

 Love Manga - » Living Corpse   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Intermedia has optioned Adam Alleca’s sci-fi action-thriller spec “The Drowning Man.” Based on Hideshi Hino’s manga “Living Corpse,” the story centers on a man who wakes up without a pulse and soon discovers that he is at the center of a macabre government experiment.
Cocoro Books (I think part of DH Publishing) has released 16 volumes now of which Living Corpse is volume 5.
It isn’t my favourite (that’s reserved for Oninbo and the Bugs from Hell) but it is still a great story and a perfect reflection of Hino’s grotesque style.
