Happy Halloween!
Reflecting this spooky day, Aruba and Chris tackle the most famous examples of J-Horror to ever grace the cinema, Nakata Hideo's Ringu (1998). We chat about the film's legacy, its theme of technophobia, the questionable gender politics, its updating of Japanese folk tradition, and whether or not it remains affective today.
This episode is dedicated to the memory of Takeuchi Yūko (1980-2020).
