DESCRIPTION:HALLOWEEN NIGHT, EARLY SHOW! ATA's OTHER CINEMA presents the national 
 editor of J-Pop mag OTAKU USA, Patrick Macias. Flying in from Tokyo for 
 this Halloween event, he will be terrorizing us with tales of the roots and 
 branches of the now super-hot J-Horror phenomenon. Macias grounds his 
 explication in the work of Nobuo Nakagawa, considered the grandfather of 
 the genre. His Jigoku (Hell, 1960) is acknowledged as one of the first gore 
 films that broke through to popular consciousness, and woke the world of 
 cinema to this phantastic thematic and stylistic vocabulary. The surreal 
 supernatural feature draws upon the Buddhist idea of retribution that all 
 earthly sins must be atoned for after death. Patrick threads his 
 appreciation of Nakagawa through excerpts from three of his other works, 
 The Ceiling at Utsunomiya (1956), The Ghost of Yotsuya (1958), and The 
 Mansion of the Ghost Cat (1959). Come early, in cosplay, for free hot sake, 
 flying turtles, and the haunted sounds of DJ ONANIST. --->NOTE: 7:30 start
