If you loved El estanque endemoniado, try Bajo los cerezos en flor
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Masahiro Shinoda, and they both carry the surreal mood tag, and they sit in Fantasy / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to El estanque endemoniado, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
surreal
What Bajo los cerezos en flor is
Kyoto mountains. Spring. An axe. A woodcutter takes wives, one after another. Each ends up dead. He meets a bewitching woman in the forest, and his murderous cycle escalates. Shinoda's artful ghost story is more uncanny than frightening.
