Country: Japan
Directed by Masaki Kobayashi
Four Japanese ghost folk stories narrated by one of the greatest Japanese directors of all time is just an ideal condition for anyone who likes this particular genre. 'Kwaidan' will not let you disappointed: it's made with great attention, with importance given to every detail, with elegance and a masterfull visual style with exceptional usage of colors, with powerfull use of the music and sound. A haunting film, that is better to watch in a big screen to maximize its effect , 'Kwaidan' may is not the best work of Kobayashi, may it look a bit old fashioned with the today's standards but still is a great work reflecting the genious of its director
