Ep. 10: Kwaidan (1964) - Holy Terrors

What this episode covers

In this episode we discuss one of the greatest horror anthologies ever made, Masaki Kobayashi's Kwaidan. We do our best to pull back the layers to examine the currents of Buddhism and Shintoism that run beneath each of the stories. Though we are limited in our understanding, we dove as deep as we could into this fascinating film. This episode was recorded before we switched to a video format, so there will not be a YouTube edition of this episode, but we hope you will check out our other episodes on YouTube as well as your podcast apps.
