What’s good, homies?! It’s time for another Spooky Season watch-along episode! This week, we sat down and watched one of our favourite movies together - the Japanese psychedelic experimental horror comedy film “House” from director Nobuhiko Obayashi! This is a totally singular film that needs to be seen to at least once… especially if you love movies! It is the highest calibre of weird and some of the most fun we’ve had watching a movie together, ever.
“House” (1977) is a stylish, strange, funny, freaky, and oddly sexual romp through a possessed house where seven schoolgirls on summer vacation face off against an evil aunt who writes in the third person, inanimate objects that become suddenly animated, a demonic cat that shoots eye lasers, a flood of blood, a hungry piano, dancing skeletons, a floating severed head, and a whole lot more. RIP to the floor lizard. Shout out to Kung Fu.
Listen… a guy gets vaporized due to someone’s personal preference for bananas over watermelon. Yeah. This movie is completely bonkers.
So join us as we watch the film and comment on all the insane things we see on the screen. You can get the film on the Criterion channel or rent it on Apple, Amazon, etc. I’m going to keep this short so as not to spoil any more of the movie. I cannot say it clearly enough: YOU NEED TO SEE THIS FILM. Don’t wait. It’s peak cinema, baby. You won’t regret it.
