Seance (2000)
October 27, 2010
Director: Kiyoshi Kurosawa
Seance is a horror movie that once again utilizes Kiyoshi’s favorite actor, Koji Yakusho, who has also appeared in Cure, Tokyo Sonata, and Charisma by the same director. This film involves a couple, Koji and Junko, who are dragged into the kidnapping of a little girl. Junko, a psychic, has a psychological breakdown and Koji follows, unable to deal with the after-effects of the kidnapping. What seems to be a message about innocent people tossed into snowballing, uncontrollable situations is also a film about greed, guilt, and oppression.
