If you loved Heaven's Door, try Jigoku
Un ponte tra un film che hai già visto e uno che quasi nessuno ha incrociato. Questo è ciò che condividono, e ciò che il secondo fa che il primo non fa.
Cosa condividono
Theysit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Heaven's Door, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Jigoku is
Towering clouds of sulphur overwhelm a flaming gate. Ghosts in bloodied kimono shuffle past a gong that never stops tolling. Seven living souls arrive too late, each bearing a corpse’s weight of guilt. One by one their sins unspool—murderers, cuckolds, betrayed lovers—all led by the tolling gong toward a lake of boiling heads. Nakagawa’s spectral parade leaves the land of the quick looking like a gentle dream.
