Memoria 2021

High and Low 1963
This is probably one of the most bonkers cop movies I’ve ever seen, it takes so many twists and turns, yet feels totally directed at a clear resolution. It looks beautiful too, but I’m starting to realize I say that about every Japanese movie in black and white, so consider it a pre-requisite at this point. It just oozes suspense and effortless cool, case and point: the dance scene! There’s so much still happening on the screen at any given moment, so many people, yet, it feels totally choreographed and smooth. The influence on other films, just in general, is astounding. A masterpiece

Yokai Monsters: 100 Monsters 1968
I love off-beat Japanese horror, and this is no exception, I just wish they focused on the monsters more. The costume design and puppets are really cool, and I loved the little animation before the umbrella dude showed up. Just a fun time all around, and a great intro to the genre of Yokai.
