Kwaidan (1964)



This is one of the greatest horror anthology movies you are ever going to see. Oh! it's just dripping with style.

It's so chock-full of style, Akira Kurosawa did his own version of the Snow Maiden. That's a very good story, actually. We might have to come back to that.

These stories come to us from Lafcadio Hern's book, Kwaidan (go check it out!). He had a pretty amazing life.

Someone needs to do a chibi version of this, like, yesterday. We can call it "Kawaiidan".

Dibs on that gag.

Yuki-onna is my favorite story but the entire film is great.
