Cinema dei Apocryphilia is moving! As a result, there will be no #Scarefest on Saturday, July 16 and perhaps not on the 23rd, either, so we're returning to the triple-feature format for July the 9th to hold the Apocryphiliacs over until we're back!
So let's go weird and wild! Nobody does that better than the four directors we've selected for this poll! There's a lot to discuss--more than we can do in one post--so I will be threading all the information about our options in reply to this post.
Option 1: Sion Sono's "Family Circle" trilogy.
This is a loose trilogy (that I've) coined as the "Family Circle" due to the themes the three films share involving family units and how cycles of love and abuse perpetuate themselves across generations and, eventually, entire societies.
Some of the most disquieting movies I've ever seen, but affecting on a level beyond the instinctual shock-value that they're known for.
a. Suicide Club
b. Noriko's Dinner Table
c. Strange Circuls
@Apocryphiliac Thanks! I wasn't familiar with any of these. (I have some serious gaps in my knowledge of non-US horror movies.)
