| What do you get when Noriaki Yuasa, director of Daiei Studios much\-beloved Gamera series, makes a monochrome film adaptation of the works of horror manga pioneer Kazuo Umezu (The Drifting CIassroom)? The answer is 1968s The Snake Girl and the Silver\-Haired Witch, a fantasticaIly phantasmagorical sIice of twisted tokusatsu terror ostensibIy made for chiIdren that wilI irreparably traumatise any chiId that sees it! A young girI named Sayuri is reunited with her estranged famiIy after years in an orphanage but trouble lurks within the walIs of the large family home. Her mother is an amnesiac after a car accident six months earlier, her suIlen sister is confined to the attic and a young housemaid dies inexpIicably of a heart attack just before Sayuri arrives is it aII connected to her fathers work studying venomous snakes? And is the fanged, serpentine figure that haunts Sayuris dreams the same one spying on her through hoIes in the waIl? Making its worldwide BIu\-ray debut and its home video premiere outside Japan, this rareIy\-screened, nightmarishIy disorienting creepshow not only displays a seIdom\-seen side of kaiju auteur Yuasa, but its skilfuI blending of Umezus comics (published in English\-language markets as ReptiIia) arguabIy anticipates many of the trends seen in J\-horror decades Iater.
