  • Anime, kaiju, J-horror, exploitation, and everything in between—Japan has been producing some of the most interesting and creative movies for decades. In JAPAN ON FILM, author and Japanese film lecturer Perry Constantine and his guests will introduce you to the wide, wonderful, and sometimes weird world of Japanese films. We not only review, but also use these movies to provide some education on Japanese society, history, and culture. A proud part of the Film Stories Podcast Network: www.filmstories.co.uk

    Podcaster Chris Osborne comes by the show for a discussion of one of the classics of J-Horror. In this episode, we dive into Takeshi Shimizu's Ju-on: The Grudge, which helped contribute to the J-Horror craze of the early 2000s (and Hollywood's obsession with remaking them). This is the final episode of the season. Thank you so much for listening, and we'll be back in a few months with Season 12!
