I had forgot about the DHMIS show until I came across this, and have been savouring each episode. I love (and hadn't made) the connection to The Young Ones, a show that was a big part of my childhood.
Not a horror fan, so I enjoy seeing the connections you are able to make to media I don't know. Hellraiser might just make my watchlist, now!
Thanks so much, Taro! Let me know what you think if you do watch Hellraiser. It’s a messy but interesting film, definitely diving in the deep end if you’re not a horror fan!
The Young Ones also had a kind of off-kilter creepy atmosphere at times, so it's a great comparison to make with DHMIS, and not one I'd considered. Just watch, 30 years from now, someone will discover another DHMIS character that just hung around in the background, like the infamous "fifth housemate" in TYO, sitting in the background like a Japanese ghost.

YES!! I’d completely forgotten about the 5th housemate, he does look just like Sadako! Now I’m going to be obsessing over every shot of DHMIS…
Indeed!
