Release Title: Kaidan [Kwaidan aka Ghost Strories] 1964 DVDRip x264 AAC-BeLLBoY (Kingdom-Release)
IMBd: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0058279/
IMDb rating: 8.0/10 (4,108 votes)

Release Date: 31/07/2010
Release Length: 3 hours 8 minutes
Storyline: For the first time in the West, The Masters of Cinema Series is proud to present the complete 183-minute original Japanese cut of Masaki Kobayashi?s Kwaidan ? one of the most meticulously crafted supernatural fantasy films ever made.
Winner of the Special Jury Prize at Cannes, Kwaidan features four nightmarish tales adapted from Lafcadio Hearn?s classic Japanese ghost stories. For this lavish, ?scope production, Kobayashi drew extensively on his own training as a student of painting and the fine arts. Indeed, the breadth of the film?s poetic expression is unmatched in all of Japanese cinema: breathtakingly photographed on handpainted sets, the film is at once a miniature writ large, and an abstract wash of luminescent colours that seem to hail from another world. On the soundtrack, an electronic score by avant-garde composer Toru Takemitsu plays hauntingly with the natural sounds ? crickets, rain, the cracking of wood, the loud silence of snow. This interaction of the film?s plastic and aural textures with the simple, aching humanity of Hearn?s tales serves to accentuate the power of the storytelling: four episodes about mortals caught up in forces beyond their comprehension ? when the supernatural world intervenes in their lives. Perhaps the definitive adaptation of Hearn?s work, Kwaidan also presents the author?s most emblematic tale ? ?Hoichi, the Earless?, in which a blind young monk journeys every night to an abandoned graveyard, compelled by the ghosts of a famous battle to retell their story, over and over again?
Starring Tatsuya Nakadai (Yojimbo, The Face of Another, Harakiri), this complete print of Kwaidan ? incorporating 21 minutes of footage never before released to Western audiences ? also includes the uncut version of ?The Snow Maiden?, in which a woodcutter marries a woman whose true calling is to wander enveloped in swirling snowflakes, bringing death to mortals. The episode marks the apotheosis of the film?s eerie atmosphere ? anticipating, and arguably surpassing, Japanese cinema?s recent excursions in the realm of ?J-horror?. Over forty years on, Kobayashi?s film remains an unparalleled achievement.[/i][/b]
