Directed by Kiyoshi Kurosawa | 134 mins | 2016
It's a classic Kurosawa set-up: forced to retire after a hostage situation goes violently astray, a detective retires to the suburbs with his wife, only to find investigative instincts piqued by a young girl whose family mysteriously vanished. Things, needless to say, take a dark turn, and in this newer, sleeker digital environment, Kurosawa's eyes and ears for tension remain unparalleled all the way to an unforgettable finale. True to its title, "Creepy" stands with this great director's finest experiments in terror.
