Kwaidan (1965)

Taking its title from an archaic Japanese word meaning "ghost story," this anthology adapts four folk tales. A penniless samurai marries for money with tragic results. A man stranded in a blizzard is saved by Yuki the Snow Maiden, but his rescue comes at a cost. Blind musician Hoichi is forced to perform for an audience of ghosts. An author relates the story of a samurai who sees another warrior's reflection in his teacup.

Kwaidan is a psychological horror film for those who are seeking an utterly immersive experience.

A warm colour palette, academic compositions and minimalist sound design ensure that the audience is affected subliminally, making their fear all the more real and, thus, the film all the more haunting.

How can this stylish a movie be that old..? Everyone attempting something similar after 1965 should be ashamed for not living up to this one. Or.. no shame, really. One of my all time favorites, this one.

Despite being one of the longest, slowest moving films I've seen, Kwaidan is also among the best. After reading Lafcadio Hearn's book, from which the stories are adapted, "Hoichi The Earless" was by far my favorite. In the film, Hoichi is phenomenal, but I actually preferred the second story, "The Woman of the Snow" as it was truly the most beautiful, and was definitely intensely creepy (which tends to be the general tone of all four stories, instead of featuring any outright "scares") Anyway, I highly recommend this, as the photography is some of the best ever put on film, combined with amazing set designs that combine normal film elements with stage influences to create a final product that is reminiscent of a moving painting.

"Kwaidan" sisÃ¤ltÃ¤Ã¤ neljÃ¤ japanilaiseen folkloreen perustuvaa kummitustarinaa. Jokainen nÃ¤istÃ¤ tarinoista on oma pieni taideteoksensa. Ne eivÃ¤t suoranaisesti sisÃ¤llÃ¤ kauhua, vaan enemmÃ¤nkin surullisia ihmiskohtaloita yliluonnollisuuteen verhoiltuna. Tarinoiden toteutus on kuvallisesti huikea. "Kwaidan" on todennÃ¤kÃ¶isesti visuaalisuudeltaan maailman kauneimpien elokuvien joukossa. VÃ¤rien, varjon ja valon kÃ¤yttÃ¶ on nerokasta. Teknisesti elokuva on myÃ¶s ensiluokkaista tyÃ¶tÃ¤. Tarinoista oma suosikkini on " The Woman on the Snow ". Klassikko.
