Has anyone ever even heard of this semi-horror flick? I saw it last night at the Independent Film Center here in NYC. Apparently it's the first time it's playing in the States (and it was made in 1977). What an incredibly weird yet satisfying movie.

Quote:
Oshare (Gorgeous) is excited about spending summer vacation with her father, until she finds out that his beautiful, freakishly serene girlfriend Ryouko would be going as well. Oshare decides she will be going to her aunt's house in the country instead. She brings with her her friends from school - Fanta (who likes to take pictures, and daydreams a lot), KunFuu (who has very good reflexes), Gari/Prof (who is a major nerd), Sweet (who likes to clean), Mac (who eats a lot), and Melody (a musician). However, the girls are unaware that the house is actually haunted. When they arrive at the house, crazy events take place and the girls disappear one by one while slowly discovering the secret behind all the madness.

i think i might see it, based on the knowledge that a character has good reflexes.

So I'm alone in seeing some cult horror movie, eh? This has to be a first.
