Made in Ugana: The Very Special Seance

Made in Ugana: The Very Special Seance

2022 · 70 min · Horror

In the fantasy worlds of Japanese filmmaker Kenichi Ugana, there are furry little alien creatures, goopy-tentacled monsters, outlandish zombies and hysterical demons. There's also wall-to-wall absurdity, a cross between Ricky Gervais, Monty Python and Sam Raimi. On the lineup are three short films (MOJA, VISITORS and COEXISTENCE) and one surprise: TWIST (the tantalizing teaser for a film to be released in 2023). Gore that makes you laugh and laughs that make you think in one bizarre package, guaranteed to send you on a gleeful trip through the frenzied mind of a world-class artist who is now single-handedly redefining genre cinema.
