视频简介
American psychologist John Holden arrives in London to participate in a symposium aiming to expose witchcraft and devil-worship as a fraud, with attention centered on a cult run by a Julian Karswell. Debarking his plane, Holden learns that the symposium leader, Henry Harrington, has suddenly died and he is now in charge. What only the audience knows is that Harrington was clearly killed by a demon, apparently summoned by Karswell to avenge his persecution. Despite both threatening and cajoling behavior by Karswell, Holden determines to proceed, though the only cult member willing to talk about his experiences is in a prison psychiatric ward, catatonic after allegedly killing yet another cult member. However, Harrington's niece, Joanna, believes, based on her uncle's notes, that Karswell may indeed have some satanic powers derived from an ancient tome in an obscure language which he has been able to translate, and attempts to warn the skeptic Holden. Karswell's mother also attempts to warn Holden off. However, the thing which begins to most get to Holden are the occasional, but mounting, sensory and mental disturbances he begins experiencing after an encounter with Karswell, and the discovery that, during this encounter, Karswell secretly slipped a slip of parchment with a curse in runic symbols on it into Holden's belongings, a parchment identical to one Harrington recorded having had passed to him in a similar manner shortly before his death... [N.B. Holden at no point stays at the Karswell estate].。男主角原田是一位失婚的戏剧作家，双亲早在廿八年前一宗车祸中丧生。一天，原田在浅草重遇父母的鬼魂。为了回味昔日的亲情，他不断前去看望，同时身体也变得越来越虚弱...... 另一边厢，原田新结识的女友阿系也似乎有着一段不为人知的过去...... 《幽异仲夏》为1988年“山本周五郎赏”的得奖小说，日本名作家山田太一原著，由新浪潮导演大林宣彦搬上银幕。故事弥漫着幽异世界诡异氛围，同时充满令人动容的感情。 荣获“电影旬报”年度，十大电影第三位，第43回每日映画，最佳导演及女配角奖，第31回蓝带奖，最佳男、女配角奖。。
