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.

It's not scary or particularly unsettling apart for a few exquisitely created images. It is, however, breathtakingly lovely, visually composed like a painting...

Killer atmosphere. The film has one huge glaring flaw though: three of the stories are just... weak. 'Black Hair' and 'The Woman in the Snow' are archetypical Japanese ghost stories that have been retold over and over, and the only thing that makes them special here are the incredible sets (was a single shot of this filmed on location??!!!) and gorgeous cinematography. 'In a Cup of Tea' is just plain lame story-wise, although it does have a neat fight sequence with phantom men, but this goes on too long and gets tedious. The best story is 'Hoichi the Earless', which is flawless. The epic battle at the beginning is realized in such an original, theatrical way I was literally in awe. The sets for the ghostly palace also instilled the same effect on me, and the twist at the end is priceless, and more than a little painful to watch (Ouch!).

The fairy tale "Woman of Snow" is better than the other three horror segments.

Four supernatural Japanese folk tales: a samurai is haunted by regret when he leaves his poor wife for a rich one; a snow-spirit spares the life of a young man on one condition; ghosts demand a blind harpist perform for them; a man sees an apparition in a cup of water. Slow, beautiful, hypnotic, poetic; eye-popping sets and masterfully eerie music. A masterpiece.
