Marebito, Ju-on, Spider Forest, Starship II, and Shadows Light

The DCI Film Festival 2005 offered five feature screenings. Two were the hottest new Asian films—the Lovecraftian J-horror Marebito, from the director of Ju-on, and the Korean supernatural thriller Spider Forest.  We also had test screenings of the comedy Starship II: Rendezvous with Ramses and the bloody God of Vampires. Finally, late night we offered Shadows Light, a tale of exorcism, demons, and a djinni.
