Dear,
I'm looking for ressources related to kaidan, not limited to movies but rather
focusing on its cultural roots and aspect. There's a book called '"Pandemonium
and Parade: Japanese Monsters and the Culture of Y?kai", by Michael Dylan
Foster. It is an expansion on his Doctoral thesis of several years earlier:
"Morphologies of Mystery: Y?kai and Discourses of the Supernatural in Japan,
1666-1999". So far i didn't find any (english) books, but maybe this has already
been the subject of some thesis ?
Again related to kaidan-eiga, is there any existing 'movie stills' books ?
There's sure lot of poster-books about jidai-geki, yakuza-eiga or kaiju-eiga,
but i never came across something related to kaidan (maybe because it's mainly
limited to Daiei/ShinToho productions?).
Thanks!
Martin
