If you loved Talk to the Dead, try Kakashi

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 Norio Tsuruta, and they both carry the dread, slow burn mood tags, and they sit in Horror territory. If that's the register that drew you to Talk to the Dead, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Kakashi is

Japanese back-land. Autumn cicadas. A missing brother's last known coordinates. Arriving in Kozukata, Kaoru finds only hostile villagers, save for one young Chinese girl. A roadside breakdown traps her; the town’s scarecrows watch. Tsuruta finds fresh dread in familiar J-horror wells.
