If you loved Demon Pond, try Under the Blossoming Cherry Trees
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Masahiro Shinoda, and they sit in Fantasy / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Demon Pond, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Under the Blossoming Cherry Trees 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.
