Takashi Miike's musical horror The Happiness of the Katakuris depicts an oddball family whose bed-and-breakfast endeavor is quickly soured by a dead body in the backyard. But did you know that the film, which blends Miike's outlandishly violent style with claymation and karaoke, is actually a remake of Kim Jee-woon’s '98 freakout The Quiet Family? The next installment in SIFF’s versus series pits the two flicks against each other for a black comedy bloodbath showdown. Tune in for the discussion remotely, or head to SIFF Film Center to duke it out in person.
The Happiness of the Katakuris screening on Feb 27 at 7:30 pm, SIFF Cinema Uptown
