If you loved Mandala, try Rampo Noir
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 Akio Jissoji. If that's the register that drew you to Mandala, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Rampo Noir is
Metropolitan Tokyo’s neon haze, summer. A single cicada’s pulse. Four writers from different eras share haunted nightmares—missing fingers, impossible doubles, a corridor of mirrors that swallows light. Each tale drags sanity through a mirror’s shard. One shot of blood on celluloid.
