Into Nightmares

Films mysterious, grotesque and erotic hog the spotlight at Asagaya's Laputa throughout spring and early summer. See Japanese gothic horror, splatter blasts and the like over 13 weeks – the programme includes highlights such as Kinji Fukasaku's Black Lizard (1968), starring a young Akihiro Miwa, pulp horror gross-out Goke, Body Snatcher from Hell (1968) and Nobuhiko Obayashi's feature debut House (1977), famed for its intentionally laughable special effects. Should be a good one for friends of cult Japanese cinema, who'll want to check out the full programme here.
