The answer is 1968's The Snake Girl and the Silver-Haired Witch, a fantastically phantasmagorical slice of twisted tokusatsu terror ostensibly made for children that will irreparably traumatize any child that sees it!\n\nA young girl named Sayuri is reunited with her estranged family after years in an orphanage - but trouble lurks within the walls of the large family home. Her mother is an amnesiac after a car accident six months earlier, her sullen sister is confined to the attic and a young housemaid dies inexplicably of a heart attack just before Sayuri arrives... is it all connected to her father's work studying venomous snakes? And is the fanged, serpentine figure that haunts Sayuri's dreams the same one spying on her through holes in the wall?\n\nMaking its worldwide Blu-ray debut and its home video premiere outside Japan, this rarely-screened, nightmarishly disorienting creepshow not only displays a seldom-seen side of kaiju auteur Yuasa, but its skilful blending of Umezu's comics (published in English-language markets as Reptilia) arguably anticipates many of the trends seen in J-horror decades later.\n\nBonus Materials\nHigh Definition (1080p) Blu-ray presentation Original uncompressed mono audio Optional English subtitles Brand new commentary by film historian David Kalat This Charming Woman, a newly filmed interview with manga and folklore scholar Zack Davisson Theatrical trailer Image gallery Reversible sleeve featuring new and original artwork by Mike Lee-Graham FIRST PRESSING ONLY: Illustrated collectors' booklet featuring new writing by Raffael Coronelli\n\nCast \u0026amp; Crew\nActors: Yûko Hamada Kazuo Umezu Mariko Fukuhara Yachie Matsui Mayumi Takahashi Kuniko Miyake\nDirector: Noriaki Yuasa\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 760137684381\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 0760137684381\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e blu_ray\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e UsedVeryGood\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"IDshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49448784396547,"sku":"D0-LREF-6L3I","price":20.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0030\/9765\/7390\/files\/91BoLMVMgQL.jpg?v=1786732007","url":"https:\/\/idshop.ca\/products\/snake-girl-the-silver-haired-witch-blu-ray","provider":"ID Shop.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
