Chime and Serpent's Path

A double bill from Kiyoshi Kurosawa that highlights his skills at onscreen unease. "Serpent’s Path", from 1998, follows a minor gangster’s blackly comic crusade of revenge for the death of his daughter as the body count mounts. The recent 45-minute "Chime" chills à la his classics "Pulse" or "Cure" as a cooking-school instructor finds himself surrounded by sudden acts of mayhem. A master at work. -Lee Gardner
