Happy Valentine's Day from Takashi Miike!

One of the most well-crafted, impactful and infamous J-horror films ever made returns to the big screen for that wonderful holiday where we all go to the movies on very romantic dates. Bring the sweetheart who you're hoping to woo and everything will go wonderfully.

AUDITION was the turn-of-the-millenium flash point signaling the talent of Takashi Miike: a film artist twice as prolific as Fassbinder, a provocateur as multifaceted as Von Trier and a genre-bender as bent as David Lynch. Shocking audiences worldwide with its white-knuckle finale and ingeniously Sirkia slow-burn romantic build-up, AUDITION was responsible for creating a fresh new wave of Japanese horror. And we’re eternally grateful.

Recent widower (and movie producer) Shigeharu is looking for a new wife. But instead of going the usual route, he decides to hold “auditions” for a movie that doesn’t exist. Shigeharu becomes enchanted with Asami: a spooky twentysomething responsive to his charms. But things aren't exactly what they seem and the movie carefully pulls the audience through a nerve-shredding exploration of male fears and the stereotype of submissive Japanese women.
