DESCRIPTION:Part of Spooky Cinema Week! - Presented on 35mm film!\n\nTwo wa
 rriors on the run lie low in a tallgrass field. One carries the other\, bot
 h are exhausted. Trampling hooves thunder on nearby roads. Concealed by the
  grasslands\, the two swordsmen collapse as the ominous breath of galloping
  beasts draws further away.\n\nBetween the straws\, two feline predators aw
 ait. The moment of opportunity is here. Silently\, they circle in on their 
 target. Empty stomachs make the tallgrass field as perilous as any battlegr
 ound\, and dog-tired fighters are easy prey.\n\nFrom out of nowhere\, swift
  spears put the spent men out of their misery. As soon as their final sighs
  whisper\, they are stripped\, dragged and dropped into a dark pit in the m
 iddle of the grassland\, never to be heard from again.\n\nCompared to horro
 r films of our age\, Onibaba is a walk in the park. In 1964\, however\, two
  topless women murdering unsuspecting samurais like flies was rather contro
 versial\, to say the least.\n\nBefore long\, the exploitative Onibaba got n
 otorious. Some even argue that the provocative subject matter and the sexua
 l undertones were a precursor to the J-horror movement in late 90s Japan.\n
 \nHowever\, Onibaba had its issues in the production department. Compared t
 o its infamous reputation\, it appears somewhat overrated. That being said\
 , it holds up well over time. Apparently\, the demonic story of desperation
  and lust had no expiration date.\n\n— Robin Syversen\, Japanese Cinema Arc
