Description

Marta Djordjevic – aka Marta McFly of McFly's Movie House podcast – joins Conrad and Dan for the delirious 2002 Japanese musical comedy horror The Happiness of the Katakuris directed by none other than prolific iconoclast Takashi Miike, who lensed 6 films in that year alone! In this case, Miike remakes Kim Jee-woon's disturbing black comedy The Quiet Family (1998) – about a family attempting to cover up a series of unfortunate deaths in their new guest house – as a genre-defying musical with karaoke and claymation sequences. The film eludes any kind of explanation, but is it any good?
