Frequently Asked Questions

Are these traditional musicals?

Not exactly - this is a deliberately offbeat corner of Japanese cinema where musical numbers meet horror, comedy and fantasy, rather than conventional song-and-dance musicals.

Where should I start?

Happiness of the Katakuris is the most widely known entry point, blending musical numbers with horror-comedy in a way that's unlike almost anything else.

What genres overlap with this collection?

Horror and comedy both feature heavily - musical numbers here are used to heighten strangeness and emotion rather than for pure spectacle.

Are these region-free with English subtitles?

Yes, these are region-free Blu-rays and DVDs from specialist Japanese cinema labels, with English subtitles included.

Do you have more from Takashi Miike or Sion Sono?
