"Horror director Takashi Miike's decidedly nontraditional musical tells the story of the Katakuri clan, innkeepers who live on the depopulated slopes of Mount Fuji and who band together with tuneful Von Trapp-like determination when their guests keep turning up dead. Upon discovery of the first body, reaction shots of each family member are given the full music-video treatment … replete with dry ice and blue light! "

Wasn't meant that way. Just letting you know that it's a crazy film.

More asian nonsense that's pretty good as long as you don't care about plot stuff. I saw it about a month ago on Sundance.

I love this movie, its absolutely brilliant, it defy's the sense's (as with any good Takashi Miike film ;) ) by combining so many different elements. I love the musical number when they discover the first dead body! 80's stylee!
