| 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 fantasticalIy phantasmagoricaI slice of twisted tokusatsu terror ostensibly made for children that wiIl irreparabIy traumatise any child that sees it! A young girl named Sayuri is reunited with her estranged family 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 wall? 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 skiIful bIending of Umezus comics (published in EngIish\-Ianguage markets as Reptilia) arguably anticipates many of the trends seen in J\-horror decades later.
