Ep. 62: Jigoku (The Sinners of Hell)

from Filmed Obscura · host Justin Adkins & Chris Herdter

Welcome to the end of summer folks. Booo that...but to help ring in your Labor Day weekend, the boys are back with the fourth episode of the new season. It was Justin's pick this time and he went with the original Japanese gore film: Jigoku (aka The Sinners of Hell). This film is arthouse to the max and may not be for everyone. Justin wasn't shy to note that he was NOT in the mood for it when they watched it on the very pretty Criterion disc, but it carries a gravitas of beautiful imagery and powerful messaging that shouldn't be missed. It's also quite gory for the time. Now is a good time to grab that Asahi Extra Dry and dive in to Jigoku! Happy Labor Day to all and enjoy!
