House (Part 2)

(1977, Nobuhiko Obayashi)

Let’s talk about the humor! I’ve never laughed so hard in my life at watching schoolgirls get eaten alive. All of the death ideas came from director Obayashi’s own daughter and that playful humor comes across perfectly. I really don’t know where to begin with it. Do I start with the painted backdrops of a landscape next to an even larger painted landscape? The scratchy visual burst effects? The dancing skeleton?? Exit stage left through the refrigerator????? THAT EYEBALL IN THE MOUTH??? BANANA MAN TOGO???? Find HOUSE, get some friends together and just enjoy. SERIOUSLY.
