2026 Japanese horror film Never After Dark (ネバーアフターダーク) in Pittsburgh, from October 9.

The 2026 Japanese horror film Never After Dark (ネバーアフターダーク) will play in Pittsburgh from October 9 through October 15.

Combining nerve-jangling ghost story, disorientating temporal paradox, and a powerful exploration of survivor’s guilt, this gripping and emotive film revisits and reinvigorates Old School J-Horror, in thrilling fashion; mixing classic genre tropes with some unusual new twists on supernatural mythology. Director and writer Dave Boyle, who has worked between the USA and Japan for over a decade, totally nails it, both tonally and visually, allowing the look and feel of the film to gradually darken in tone, as the various component parts of the intricately constructed narrative start to click together, the mystery of precisely what is going on and why starts to unfold, and we come face to face with the long-buried secrets both of the haunted house, and of the film’s likeable but defensive and damaged protagonist. Eerie, and unsettling, with an appealing vein of quirky humour, and a quiet undertow of sorrow and regret, this is a smart, subtle, and narratively satisfying character driven story of the supernatural, which builds to a powerful, gut-punch ending. 

It plays at the Harris Theater in downtown's Cultural District (map) and tickets are available online.

New 4K restoration of 1964 Japanese horror film anthology Kwaidan (怪談) in Pittsburgh, from October 8.

The 1964 Japanese horror film anthology Kwaidan (怪談) will play in Pittsburgh from October 8 through 13, part of the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust's International Art House series.

New 4K Restoration! Original Japanese Cut! 

Spirits in the drinking water, stolen ears, crabs with human faces: such are the endless wonders of Kwaidan. A haunting masterpiece of world cinema, Kwaidan remains one of the most visually astonishing horror films ever made. Directed by the legendary Japanese filmmaker Masaki Kobayashi (Harakiri) and based on the collected folklore Lafcadio Hearn, this anthology film presents four supernatural tales: a doomed samurai haunted by his past, a snow spirit's deadly bargain, a blind musician performing for the dead, and a mysterious encounter with a man who cannot stop smiling. 

Produced during the golden age of Japanese cinema, Kwaidan was an ambitious and extraordinarily expensive undertaking, with Kobayashi constructing elaborate expressionistic sets that transform traditional ghost stories into breathtaking cinematic nightmares. Eschewing realism in favor of stylized color palettes, theatrical staging, and an eerie, avant-garde soundscape by composer Toru Takemitsu (Akira Kurosawa’s Ran), the film created a visual language that continues to influence filmmakers more than sixty years later. This new restoration of Kwaidan reflects the full, original three-hour cut of the film as originally released in Japan. 

It plays at the Harris Theater in downtown's Cultural District (map) and tickets are available online.
