For this Sunday Kino Night, ‘tis the season for horror, so first up is Kuroneko (1968), a Japanese ghost story about the ghost of a r*ped murdered woman who returns for revenge on men. After she slaughters a few of them, the local governor sends a young man to confront the ghost, and spookiness ensues. This is considered one of the best Japanese horror films of all time, and arguably the magnum opus of director Kaneto Shindo, who is otherwise best-known for the similarly-themed Onibaba (1964), which we previously watched. Currently ranked #35 on Letterboxd’s Top 250 horror films of all time.

Next is Riceboy Sleeps (2022), a Canadian drama about a Korean single mom who immigrates to Canada in the 1990s in search of a better future for both herself and her son. Drama ensues as the boy grows up and begins to grow distant from his mom, as he disavows his Korean identity in favor of assimilation. God Damn KKKanada: The Movie. One of the highest-rated Canadian movies on Letterboxd. It is the only notable work to date of director Anthony Shim.

We’ll start at 8PM EST on Hextube, right here:
