4.0 out of 5 stars Demon Pond, October 30, 2009

This review is from: Demon Pond (DVD)

This piece of theatre is about a small Japanese village that fears the ancient evil inside of the Demon Pond. The bell ringer of the village is rumored to keep the evil at bay with his bell, but the villagers do not believe this and fear the drought that has besieged them. The story is brilliant, even if you can see where it's going at times and it plays so smoothly that you can barely tell it was over two hours long. The acting is great and features some excellent humor from both the story and some wonderful improvisation. Great all around and beautifully captivating, I would love to see this in person someday.

1.0 out of 5 stars Filmed Live Theatre NOT Movie with same name, April 25, 2009

This review is from: Demon Pond (DVD)

This is not the movie I remembered from the 80's. It is a live theatre stage version of the same story not the amazing live-action fantasy movie that slipped back and forth from our world to fable through the pond. I'm very disappointed, but hope to someday find the film I saw 25 years ago. On its own this production is OK, but I'm never impressed with filmed plays. The dialogue is too fast for subtitles over all not happy.
