Product Description ------------------- Deep within the wind-swept marshes of war-torn medieval Japan, an impoverished mother and her daughter-in-law eke out a lonely, desperate existence. Direction: Kaneto Shindo Actors: Jitsuko Yoshimura, Jukichi Uno, Kei Sato. Special Features: New video interview with writer/director Kaneto Shindo; Rare super-8 black & white and color footage provided by actor Kei Sato, on location during the filming of Onibaba. Anamorphic 16 x 9, Widescreen, 2.35:1 format. Language: Japanese / Sub. English. Year: 1964 Runtime: 103 minutes. .com ---- A curse hangs over Kaneto Shindo's primal Japanese classic like a looming storm cloud, but the supernatural has got nothing on the desperation and savagery of the human animal trying to survive the horrors of war. In 16th-century Japan, a hardened middle-aged woman and her young daughter-in-law have turned predator to survive, murdering the soldiers who wander into the sea of pampas grass surrounding their hut and selling their weapons for rice. When their war-deserter neighbor returns home and makes his moves on the young woman, their numb equilibrium is complicated by greed, jealousy, and lust. The consequences are terrible and not exactly surprising, but they are gripping. Shindo's unnerving close-ups, bobbing handheld camerawork, and soundtrack of pounding drums and howling flutes gives Onibaba a queasy intensity. Shooting in stark black and white, he makes even the waving of the grass look ominous as it all but swallows everyone who enters. --Sean Axmaker
