Gorgeous gore?
Any bloody (‘gory’, though I dislike the term) films that are legitimately beautiful come to mind, apart from Kill Bill? South Korean cinema welcome as I know they have a lot of that, but I’m open to anywhere. I’ve probably seen all the obvious contenders but seeking to expand my horizons.

Re: Gorgeous gore?
Wracking my brains to think if I’ve ever seen a “gory” movie. I own Kill Bill, but didn’t realize it’s a gory movie.

Posession The Other Lamb Texas Chainsaw Massacre Carrie The Untamed Thirst I Saw the Devil Inside Raw Suspiria? and loads of other Giallo films |
Revenge (2017)
And maybe some other New French Extremity films. Revenge has moments of gore. And of course the directors predilection for close ups of the heroines tight butt and body. While covered in blood. It’s a rape revenge thriller. Less focus on the rape, more on gore. Pretty sure it’s right up your alley. |
When I read 'gorgeous gore', Possession was the first thing that came to mind.
Wouldn't categorize Kill Bill as gore either, but if your looking for bloody combat with stylish choreo scenes, check out; Zatoichi, the Raid 2 and Lady Snowblood. |

Thank you! Yes, I’ve seen all of that, yes, do thing like Revenge would he good. I liked French Extremity at the time but looking for something sleeker/higher quality, French Extremity tended to disintegrate into pure gore, which was a shame.

Un Chien Andalou
The Act of Seeing with One's Own Eyes Lady Snowblood Guinea Pig: Mermaid in the Manhole There's definitely a lot more but that's what comes to mind immediately. |
In that case, maybe; Carrie & Phenomena

It's not a film, but the now-ended NBC show Hannibal is the single-best example of this I can think of, and to be honest, whatever I'd put in second would probably be a long ways behind it.
(Not really a big spoiler, just one of the victim tableaus.) It's on Netflix. |

Dredd (2012)

There's a moment in Julie Taymor's Titus that is horrifying but also....lovely? I can't say I was a giant fan of the film, but that one scene has haunted me forever.
this clip may or may not be safe for work |
The films of Lucio Fulci come to mind.
The Beyond Zombie The New York Ripper |

Re: Gorgeous gore?
Long time since I've seen it, but Brotherhood of the Wolf might fit.
