That bottomless night, when green-hued parasites devour humans, serves as a stark reminder of the food chain’s most ruthless face. In this animated horror experiment by Yôji Kuri, the endless cycle of life and death transforms into a mechanical nightmare. Strange figures bound to one another—both by compassion and by violence—in barren landscapes appear on screen as grotesque reflections of struggles over hierarchy and wealth. Accompanied by Isao Tomita’s synthesizer melodies, this eerie world—which evolves into a surreal ritual—draws the viewer in.
