Off Village: Daisan Bougyoheki

A manga about a secret village hidden in Japan where the dead reanimate. When the reanimated eat a living human they transform into a horrifying skinless monster.

The art work by VOID is very impressive here. While the reanimated zombie-like humans are nothing special, the skinless monster looks very terrifying. My main issue with this manga is the various plot holes that arise from the backstory of this village. The government secret unknown to even the prime minister premise is always eyerolling and always prone to illogical setups. It makes me feel appreciate horror stories that don’t try to explain everything because ultimately the explanation leads to more problems.
