Pre-teens somehow come of age in “Drifting Home,” a Japanese animated fantasy about a group of sixth graders who float out to sea in a haunted apartment complex. I say “somehow” because the lessons learned and friends gained along the way are never as interesting nor as well developed as the movie's apocalyptic central premise: a tight-knit group of friends get lost in space—with no food and no fresh water—after a flash flood sends them and the otherwise abandoned Kamonomiya apartments into a vast and maybe limitless ocean.The kids, led by de facto group leader Kosuke (Mutsumi Tamura) and his childhood friend Natsume (Asami Seto), inevitably discover that they shouldn't take their loved ones for granted, but also should know when to let go. Unfortunately, the movie's initial set-up is more compelling than these bubbly protagonists. A light tone is affected throughout, which makes the occasional outburst of disaster movie peril even more jarring. But yes, you read that right: there's a new animated movie about a group of children who fall through a crack in the space-time continuum, and it's not as good as that sounds.Manga fans may find that the central premise of “Drifting Home” is reminiscent of The Drifting Classroom, Kazuo Umezu's disturbing and imaginatively realized horror comic. In Umezu's manga, a pack of grade schoolers become unstuck in time after an inexplicable catastrophe sends their school hurtling into a dystopian future. “Drifting Home” is considerably more light-hearted (and features fewer mutant spiders and child crucifixions).In “Drifting Home,” Kosuke reluctantly follows his heedlessly curious friends Taishi (Yumiko Kobayashi) and Yuzuru (Daiki Yamashita) into the 60-year-old Kamonomiya projects. Kosuke is the most well-developed of these characters, mostly because he has loved ones beyond his platonic pals: recently deceased grandpa Yasuji (Bin Shimada) and overworked mother Satoko (Nana Mizuki). Kosuke still leads his friends in exploring the Kamonomiya apartments, despite associating the building with Yasuji, a former resident. Later on, Kosuke reconnects with Natsume, who has essentially been a surrogate member of Kosuke's family for some years.Also, there's a pale wraith-like child haunting the Kamonomiya building; his name is Noppo (Ayumu Murase), and yes, he's obviously a ghost. An over-explained and under-utilized dream logic unites Noppo and Kosuke's group, most of it concerning Kosuke's strong emotional attachment with Natsume. That connection barely matters beyond a point though. The group's floating shelter occasionally runs into other rundown and (mostly) uninhabited locations, including a department store and other apartment complexes. These exploratory scenes carry the movie to its eventual payoff about two hours later. It's not an easy transit, but “Drifting Home” eventually gets there.One considerable problem: these kids aren't psychologically or emotionally motivated beyond their general will to live, so they spend more time problem solving than they should. Some circumstantial peril forces Kosuke's group to confront the surreal gravity of their situation. But even then, these kids either talk or forage their way through the most dangerous aspects of their plight. Imagine a survival horror narrative that mostly keeps to the reassuring side of its nightmarish premise. What's the point? Viewers might leave with some prefab life lessons and general wonder at a premise that, again, seems kind of familiar. “Drifting Home” works best when it's a straight-forward disaster movie, focused more on the group's search for new supplies, or, later on, the eventual collapse of the Kamonomiya building. (they're floating around at sea, not a spoiler). Matters get complicated whenever bigger questions arise, particularly related to Noppo as well as Kosuke and Natsume's fraught, largely unexamined relationship. Also, it's hard to stay excited about this movie when so much time is wasted doling out insubstantial and generally unnecessary explanations about this cataclysmic and strictly impossible event. Sometimes, a fantasy should remain fantastic.But the real problem with “Drifting Home” is that its central premise doesn't reflects its characters' emotional states. There's a lot of great, lived-in details baked into the movie's production design, especially in the Kanomiya's layout and haunted atmosphere. And yet this evocative set-up doesn't say much about Kosuke and Natsume's stillborn relationship, which mainly advances during stillborn conversations, and not mid-crisis adventures. They explore life at the end of the world, declare their feelings—or intentions, really—and then receive wisdom. It's not a complicated narrative, possibly because the movie's designed for younger viewers. But the conception of “Drifting Home” is so stunted that its only memorable thing is its untapped potential. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

The Drifting Classroom is part Lord of the Flies, part Lost in Space, and wholly weird and unexpected. At once funny, absurd, and horrific, Kazuo Umezu's epic will transport you to a seriously odd place, where children are crucified or turned into bugs, janitors lurk the hallways like monsters out of a slasher movie, and grieving mothers smuggle bubonic plague medicine across space and time via mummified bodies. Yes. All that happens.

Believe it or not, I've been doing these reviews for over a year at this point and it's been lovely watching how much it's all grown. This originally started with me desperately wanting to review the Criterion Collection's The Complete Films of Agnès Varda boxset and it has grown into something I couldn't imagine. Over the past 12 months, this has gone from just the lovely folks over at Kino Lorber and the Criterion Collection to also working with other lovely folks over at Arrow Video, Fun City Editions, GKIDS, Code Red, MVD Entertainment, Synapse Films, and Cohen Film Collection to help bring awareness to the wide world of well-curated and pristinely-packed cinema you could experience from the comfort and safety of your home with no more than a TV and a Blu-ray player (no internet required). This started as a way to keep people engaged with repertory and arthouse titles while theaters were closed and tech companies continued to gobble up the scope of cinema, but it's now evolved into blog discovery and being intentional and passionate about cinema I consume. It's been great hearing all the feedback over the past 12 months and getting to hear from people who found this column by chance. I love doing it and I hope you guys still like listening to and reading it. So what better way to celebrate a one-year anniversary than with the addition of two new distributors! From the UK but bearing “All Region” gifts comes Imprint Films with its releases of Basil Dearden's penultimate film, The Assassination Bureau starring late greats Oliver Reed, Telly Savalas, and of course Diana Rigg, a romp about assassins who clearly don't understand there are more efficient ways to kill a person than bombs (more on that later). They also have released a handsome boxset containing both the 1951 Anthony Asquith/Michael Redgrave and 1994 Mike Figgis/Albert Finney adaptations of Terrence Rattigan's The Browning Version. Also making their debut is the long-awaited and oft-asked-for Vinegar Syndrome! We're starting off with their exclusive release of the very exciting reconstruction of the nearly lost and soon-to-be-cult-favorite New York Ninja. We also have our usual suspects with Kino Lorber giving us releases of director John G. Avildsen and composer Bill Conti's unlikely but welcome follow-up to Rocky, Slow Dancing in the Big City starring unlikely romantic lead Paul Sorvino. John Huston's Freud biopic starring Montgomery Clift and Susannah York makes a welcome appearance, which prompts me to once again think about what makes a biopic work artistically in the first place. There is also the season 1 release of Rod Serling's horror-tinged Twilight Zone follow-up Night Gallery. Arrow Video brings us two welcome releases for cinephiles who have their sights set on lesser-known Japanese genre cinema: Gamera director Noriaki Yuasa's adaptation of Kazuo Umezu's manga “Hebi shōjo (Snake Girl)” into a horror film aimed to traumatize children everywhere, The Snake Girl and the Silver Haired Witch, and there's also the genre-bending mash-up that is Shinji Somai's Sailor Suit and Machine Gun, which somehow threads the needle between quiet coming-of-age drama, yakuza movie, and Japanese “idol movie.” Finally, we have my pick of the month from Fun City Editions with their recent release of Christopher Petit's New German cinema-inspired and new wave-scored British road movie Radio On, a gem I hope won't remain hidden for long. After a year of doing this, I hope some of you have found something you've enjoyed that you would have otherwise missed or overlooked, and if you haven't yet, I hope this month can change that.

We're joined by frequent guest hosts Tom and Kevin to talk about Macoto Tezuka's Yokai-centric Monster Heaven films. Monster Heaven (1986) is an anthology film of several different Yokai stories. Monster Heaven: Ghost Hero (1990) is a single story about a resurrected samurai demon slashing his way through a metropolitan workplace. They feature recognizable faces such as Misatoh Eve, Osamu Tezuka, Kazuo Umezu, and Hideyo Amamoto, and creature effects by the great Tomoo Haraguchi. So are these lost gems that deserve to be rediscovered? Listen and find out!

Get settled in, spooky kids, because we're going on a trek across the desert wasteland into the wild and winding world of Kazu Umezu's epic manga The Drifting Classroom (and the even stranger associated film!).

Er vold, død, lemlæstelse og eksistentiel skræk den rette læsning for tweens? Det mente japanske Kazuo Umezu, der publicerede sit mest berømte værk, The Drifting Classroom i børnebladet Shonen Sunday Jump fra 1972-74. Radio Rackham læser hans intense, desillusionerede og dybt rørende klassiker og overvejer spørgsmålet. Umezu (f. 1936) er en af den moderne japanske skræktegneseries fædre og en af kunstformens store orignaler. The Drifting Classroom (Hyōryū Kyōshitsu) er historien om en skole med 862 elever, der pludselig forsvinder og dukker op i en fremdtid, hvor alt omkring den er blevet til støv. Og så starter mareridtet for alvor. Den ene livstruende krise følger den anden i nærmest hysterisk tempo mens børnene forsøger at organisere sig, overleve og bevare deres menneskelighed. Det går ikke lige godt for dem alle. Rottefængeren fra Hammelen møder Fluernes Herre på LSD. Det er en kulørt fortælling, der byder på ufremkommeligt terræn, farlige planter, byldepest, muterede væsener og robotter, men også leverer et studie i magtdynamikker og konflikt-situationer. Samtidig krydklippes der til nutidsplanet, hvor vi følger de tabte børns forældre og Umezus genkommende ledemotiv om forholdet mellem forældre og børn fremstår tindrende klart, båret frem af en stærk visuel intelligens. Frederik Storm, Henry Sørensen, Thomas Thorhauge og Matthias Wivel diskuterer hvorfor vi her har at gøre med en tegneserieklassiker og hvorfor den måske alligevel er velegnet som læsning for (visse) børn. The Drifting Classroom blev for nylig genudgivet på engelsk i tre veloproducerede, digre bind af Viz Media. Deruodver foreligger novellesamlingerne Scary Book 1-3 og Cat-Eyed Boy, mens man skal være mere end almindeligt heldig for at finde et eksemplar af den amerikanske udgave af Orochi: Blood, der er til at betale. I episoden nævner vi også det sene mesterværk Watashiwa Shingo ("Jeg er Shingo", 1982-86), som foreligger i en flot fransk udgave og forhåbentlig finder engelsk (eller måske endda... dansk?) oversættelse en dag. En særlig tak til Anders Schunk, som generøst har bistået udstyrsupgrade og skud til DJ Cars10 for musikken.

Kazuo Umezu’s horror manga series The Drifting Classroom is a taboo-busting series: it was aimed at kids and employs kid logic and exaggeration to a story depicting outrageous violence being done to and by kids. Even if you’re into horror, that description may have you asking: “Is this for me?” In this episode, Kumar and … Continue reading #677 “The Drifting Classroom”

Welcome back to another October horror edition of the show. Byrd, Matt and Tom delve into the snake girls of famed manga writer Kazuo Umezu. We take a look at two adaptations of Umezu's "snake girl" stories. Daiei's 1968 horror film Snake Girl and the Silver Haired Witch (directed by Gamera creator Noriaki Yuasa!), as well as "Snake Girl," an episode of the 2005 anthology television series, "Kazuo Umezu's Horror Theater" directed by exploitation guru Noboru Iguchi. We also discuss Umezu's original manga stories that inspired these obscure kid friendly horrors!

Sloane and Leslie talk about the work of Junji Ito, one of the most popular working horror manga artists. Spoilers for Tomie, Uzumaki, Hellstar Remina, Souichi, and several of his other short stories. His work deals with a lot of anxiety, existential dread, and the cruel, capricious nature of the world, while portraying the fragility of human nature. Also mentioned in this episode: Kazuo Umezu, Suehiro Maruo, Shintaro Kago, Shuzo Oshimi.
For our Halloween special, Byrd, Matt and Tom discuss four horror films by kaiju-fan favorite director, Shusuke Kaneko. On the chopping block today are the Toho vampire comedy My Soul Is Slashed (1991), the HP Lovecraft anthology Necronomicon (1993), Toho's sci-fi mutant film Pyrokinesis (2000), and the Kazuo Umezu manga adaptation God's Left Hand, The Devil's Right Hand (2006). Kaneko is one of the few kaiju directors to have a vast and successful career outside of the genre, so we took a look at his horror output. Can Kaneko be considered a master of horror?

Święta zbliżają się wielkimi krokami a ja kontynuuję zapoczątkowany przed trzema laty tematyczny cykl, w którym w skrócie zaprezentuję kolejną dawkę alternatywy dla polsatowskich propozycji do ramówki świątecznej. Tradycyjnie będą to zarówno filmy dobre jak i „perełki” wygrzebany z najgłębszych czeluści archiwum kinematografii. W dzisiejszym odcinku wyjątkowo usłyszycie też gościa specjalnego i jego recenzję jednego filmu. W dzisiejszym przeglądzie omawiam: Silent Night, Bloody Night: The Homecoming (2013) Trees 2: The Root of All Evil (2004) Rabid (1977) Snowmageddon (2011) Kazuo Umezu's Horror Theater: The Present (2005) Dead of Night (1945) – recenzja Skury
Volume 7 by Kazuo Umezu. Translated by Yuji Oniki. Originally published in Japan by Shogakukan in 1974. Published by Viz under their Signature line for $9.99. Rated Mature.The kids of the school prayed for rain and they have technically gotten what they wished for. But instead of a gentle rainfall to soothe their parched throats, the water is sent in the form of a Biblical wave of water moving rapidly across the desert right towards the school. Some of Sho's party out in the wasteland get killed as the water turns parts of the desert into quicksand. Sakiko and some of the other students try to form a human wall against the tsunami like wave to protect their newly planted vegetable garden. Even if they stop the water somehow, the kids will have to contend with the warping nature of the world that is mutating and disfiguring the plantlife into weird-looking mushrooms which only the craziest or most desperate of the kids are willing to eat. And the power dynamics of the school soon shift dramatically when Sekiya, the only adult left on campus, and a psycho to boot, regains his faculties. Previously, he had been reduced to the mental capacity of an infant after suffering the shock of dealing with a huge scorpion-like monster. Now that he's got his memories back, he's ready to seize power. Ok, here we are on Volume 7 of this series, and there's hardly been any explanation as to what happened to this school and why they are being tortured so. I accept that they are in the future sometime, where at least the surrounding vicinity has been reduced to a desolate wasteland. I also understand that somehow in this world, the student's fears and wants are materialized in sometimes monstrous forms, but the question is WHY and HOW? While the series is creepy and scary, I'm beginning to tire of the endless obstacle course Sho and the others are being put through. Does it have any meaning or end? While Battle Royale was a sadistic exercise in cruelty, there was at least a goal in its plot, a reason to excuse all the blood, gore, and exploitation. We don't have any of that for Drifting Classroom. We just have very bad things happening to normal everyday children for no definable reason like Umezu would just sit at his drawing board and think "What can I do to them THIS week?" Still interesting but is beginning to drag My Grade: B
Manga Review for The Drifting Classroom Volume 6 by Kazuo Umezu. Translated by Yuji Oniki. Published by Viz in June 2007 under their Signature imprint. Originally published in Japan by Shogakukan in 1974. $9.99, Rated "M" for Mature. Boy, do the kids of Yamato Elementary School have it rough. Not only have they had to deal with murderous teachers, bullies, starvation, dehydration, a giant insectoid monster born out of a student's nightmares, a swarm of flesh-eating miniature insectoid monsters, but now they face an outbreak of the Black Plague. Yep, that's bubonic plague for people in the know. The student body has turned on each other with the infected being boarded up in a school building and in danger of being burned alive by the rest of their classmates. Sho and a small group of his friends must devise a way to rescue them. The only way to stop the plague is to get a vaccine but it's not like there's a slight shortage of medicine in the wastelands. Sho is still able to contact his mother telepathically somehow but where could you possibly place the medicine so it will be safe for decades, or possibly hundreds or even thousands of years? And how is she going to get her hands on it? Nobody but her can hear Sho's voice and her husband is starting to think she might be going a bit crazy. The Drifting Classroom is a good read, don't get me wrong, but some of the things that happen in this sixth volume go beyond even the widest range of possibility. Sho tells his mom to put the medicine in a mummy he found in the basement of a ruined hospital but what are the odds that same mummy is going to be in the exact hospital at the exact time that his mother searches for it. And how is medicine going to stay good for years and years through a nuclear war or whatever led to the world that Sho and the others are living in? Medicine has expiration dates for a good reason. Also, the lineup of afflictions that are assailing Yamato Elementary are almost Biblical in proportion and are getting to be quite sadistic. I'm HOPING that all this is going to have a point. Right now, I'm just trying to enjoy the series without thinking too much how it's all going to end. It seems that the kids haven't figured out that their thoughts are having a great effect on the environment. Maybe they should just all chant together "There's no place like home" and they will magically wake up in their own beds in their own homes. My Grade: B
