House


In addition to Star Wars, 1977 also saw the release of House (Hausu), a Japanese horror film directed by Nobuhiko Ôbayashi.


It's about a group of Japanese girls who spend their vacation time at a friend's aunt's house--not knowing that the aunt is dead, and the house is haunted. 


The girls go barefoot a great deal in this film, making themselves at home in the house despite the weird goings-on.

In spite of several horrific killings, which includes a lot of gore, House manages to be weirdly charming. 


It helps that the chilling moments are offset by over-the-top comedy that boarders on being extremely silly. House is a very weird horror/comedy film with some great BF scenes.
