House (1977)
Presented by Bryn Mawr Film Institute at Bryn Mawr Film Institute February 17, 2012 Only recently unearthed, Nobuhiko Obayashi’s trippy 1977 film about a group of schoolgirls who are menaced by evil spirits, bloodthirsty pianos, and a demonic housecat at a creepy country house has to be seen to be believed. Too absurd to be genuinely terrifying, yet too nightmarish to be merely comic, House is one of the most exciting genre discoveries in years.
This film, directed by Nobuhiko Ohbayahi, is rated R.
