Japanese cult classic Hausu (Japanese for House) gets a big screen showing this Saturday, Oct 31st at BAM for one day only! Nobuhiko Obayashi 1977 film has been described as Beetlejuice as if directed by Dario Argento. I’ve been dying to see this for a little while now, as it’s not easily available in the states. Check the clip above, the whole movie seems like an absolute obsolete special FX insanity. Check the trailer above and abstract and clip below. Mind = Blown!

Like a Japanese Evil Dead on acid, this surreal, kaleidoscopic trip of a film features swirling, psychedelic visuals, a murderous lampshade, and one truly freaky cat. Seven teenage girls are summoned to an old woman’s possessed mansion where one by one each is murdered by the house in a series of eye-poppingly gruesome set pieces. Alternately satirical and disturbing, this crazed, confounding film takes horror-comedy to a new level.

House is screening at 2pm, 4:30pm, 6:50pm & 9:15pm. Be there and be stoned, this will be  a perfect precursor to your All Hallows Eve plans later in the evening!
