Chinese Ghost Story: Tsui Hark Animation : 3 of 5
3.02.2001
6:55 PM | Link
I saw this a long time ago at the UT student union with Matt, but I was very sleepy and couldn't follow it. This time I was wide awake, and still barely made it, but it was better this time. The story is a wild one, full of characters with names like Ten Miles and Solid Gold, and all kinds of bizarre ghosts. On top of that, the animation style is full of CG integration with a psychedelic feel, so most of your brain cycles are spent just trying to keep track of what's happening, let alone why. Eventually the characters do grow into people you care about and there is a fantastic scene where they are whirling along towards reincarnation and actually growing younger before your eyes.
