La Femme Qui Se Poudre (1972)

aka: The Woman Who Powders Herself

If David Lynch had filmed Sadako’s Ringu video it would come out something like this. It excites with stop motion, hand drawn animation, film grain, a lot of avant-garde wiggins in the second half and a haunting musical score that crawls under your skin and does a little dance on your nerve endings. Watch it in the dark for good times.

5 what the hell did I just watch? out of 5
