Event Details

"It is impossible to think of so many subsequent horror films set in isolated foggy landscapes without realizing their influence from this film. Ugetsu is also much more than a horror movie or a ghost story. It is a stunning period film set in the war torn 16th century Japan. A detailed film that makes you feel as if you are opening a window into the mysterious past and on a mysterious world." - Chanan Stern.

Join film critic Walter Chaw and actor and film maker Alex Winter (act. Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure, act. The Lost Boys, dir. Fever) to talk about this film. Ugetsu is free to watch on the streaming service Kanopy which you can subscribe to using your library card. Not a Kanopy member yet? Grab your library card and get started here.
