Gengobei è un uomo diviso tra il dovere di samurai e il sentimento verso una geisha. Tra inganni, identità nascoste e proiezioni mentali che si ripercuotono sul reale, sogno e realtà si confondono, mentre gli eventi precipitano nel sangue.
Diretto da Toshio Matsumoto

    This movie should be called “Dreams” amirite I wonder if Sofia Boutella watched this breakdown scene as inspiration for hers in Climax A better “person sings a song within the film” moment than most that occur today (which is many, and often) Those two should have been much more proactive! That one dude’s hump on his back was…interesting Feel like this could have easily inspired Tarantino Some incredible realism, esp for the time! That choking scene was brutal Wild breaking of a huge taboo and lasting unwritten rule in film! Took our man just a little too long to put the pieces together there at the end lmao Fun flick! Legitimately badass Added to The Non-English Niche

    Touted by critics as "the darkest samurai film ever made," Demons is the work of Toshio Matsumoto, a pioneer of avant-garde experimental movies in Japan and abroad. It tells the story of the samurai Gengobe, who seeks revenge after falling prey to the schemes of a geisha and her husband. What ensues is an absolutely radical work of pure, overwhelming cinematic evil. It's a gloomy, suffocating, claustrophobic movie to get through, that's for sure; definitely not fit for the faint of heart. But for those with the stomach for it, Demons is a must-see. More so than slow-burning, it's slow-simmering horror—and before you notice, it all starts boiling over in the most unforgettably terrifying of ways. Thematically complex and technically masterful, it's one of the most underappreciated Japanese masterpieces of the entire 20th century.
