Pet Sematary
(1989, 103min/color, DCP)
Dale Midkiff, Fred Gwynne, Denise Crosby, Brad Greenquist, Mary Louise Wilson. Directed by Mary Lambert.
This terrifying tale by horror icon Stephen King follows the tragic story of the Creed family. After their cat is accidentally killed, a friendly neighbor advises its burial in a mysterious nearby cemetery. When the cat comes back, it's only the beginning of an unthinkable evil leading to hell and back. Sometimes...dead is better.
Hausu
(1977, 88min/color/Japanese w/ English subtitles, Digital)
Kimiko Ikegami, Miki Jinbo, Kumiko Ohba, and Ai Matsubara. Directed by Nobuhiko Obayashi.
How to describe Nobuhiko Obayashi’s indescribable 1977 movie Hausu? As a psychedelic ghost tale? A stream-of-consciousness bedtime story? An episode of Scooby-Doo as directed by Mario Bava? Any of the above will do for this hallucinatory head trip about a schoolgirl who travels with six classmates to her ailing aunt’s creaky country home and comes face-to-face with evil spirits, a demonic house cat, a bloodthirsty piano, and other ghoulish visions, all realized by Obayashi via mattes, animation, and collage effects. Equally absurd and nightmarish, House might have been beamed to Earth from some other planet.
