Orrin Grey of the Horror Pod Class and Elijah LaFollette of Analog Sunday are paying homage to a giant or horror Manga: Kazuo Umezu!
About this Event

You may not know the name Kazuo Umezu, but you've been touched by his legacy. The "god of horror manga" inspired beloved creators like Junji Ito and Hideshi Hino. Now, one year after his death and on the anniversary of his birthday, Stray Cat Film Center and hosts Orrin Grey of the Horror Pod Class and Elijah LaFollette of Analog Sunday are paying homage to a giant with four nights of bizarre and bewildering Kazuo Umezu film adaptations. You won't know what you'll be watching until you're seated, but we guarantee it'll be like nothing you've ever seen before. And who knows, you might even learn a little something... about fear!

Hint: Kazuo Umezu himself makes a cameo in a grisly Mommie Dearest riff - and so does a horrific, Cronenbergian brain-swapping machine.
