In this week's episode we took a look at four J-horror shorts from emerging Japanese directors that have excelled in their field: Best Wishes To All by Yuta Shimotsu, Closet by Hiroto Nakano, KARAKASA by Kenji Yamamoto and The Invitation by Hiroho Mieno.
These four horror shorts are screening as part of a competition hosted by the Japanese Film Festival Online 2024. If you're a fan of Japanese cinema or horror cinema, I would definitely recommend checking out this FREE ONLINE film festival.
