Hoping to find a sense of connection to her late mother, Gorgeous takes a trip with her friends to visit her aunt’s ancestral house in the countryside. The girls soon discover that there is more to the old house than meets the eye.

“Obayashi crams every frame with a surplus of mad ideas, as if his background in 30-second spots demanded he never let the screen remain calm for an instant. He loves superimpositions, Day-Glo matte horizons and cotton-candy color schemes, crudely animated special effects (like amputated fingers playing a piano and a watermelon that becomes a carnivorous, high-flying human head), and jarring, jaw-dropping juxtapositions.” ~ Steve Dollar, Paste

Screening 10/8 + 10/18
