Darren Aronofsky often makes challenging films, specializing in psychological studies that delve deep into troubled or even tortured minds, and Black Swan's certainly one of his most confronting efforts. Natalie Portman's lead performance is equally instrumental in making the film as effective as it is, with the role deservedly winning her an Academy Award for Best Actress.
With its focus on psychological thrills and frights, perhaps the less said about the plot, the better. Generally, it revolves around a murder and the madness caused in its aftermath when a supposedly dead body mysteriously vanishes. Diabolique is surreal and does a great job of putting the viewer into the increasingly tortured minds of its main characters, cementing it asan uncanny and appropriately eerie viewing experience that's hard to shake once seen.
As such, those who find the idea of a three-hour horror movie scarier than any of the horror contained within can rest assured - Kwaidan can be easily watched in as many as four different sittings. Kwaidan deservedly stands as one of the greatest Japanese horror movies of all time and puts several folk tales on screen with creative visuals and a bold sense of style. 8 'Rosemary's Baby' Letterboxd Rating: 4.
