Viewing Notes
I have an AVI file of this somewhere which is how it watched it 8 years ago. Decided to view it via DKUTV tonight in hopes it may be a better version. It’s not but I’m gonna revisit anyways since it’s been so long.
Oh I forgot Hideyo Amamoto is the old witch granny! This entire cast is loaded with Toho all-stars. It’s a goddamn shame we can’t get these movies licensed for distribution here.
That’s an Ifukube score, too! As if it wasn’t obvious.
