Episode Details

This time on the K J & A Podcast, Kevin and Jay dive into Mononoke the Movie: The Phantom in the Rain, the visually stunning and seriously unsettling supernatural horror film on Netflix!

Set inside the secluded women’s quarters of Japan’s imperial palace, the movie follows a mysterious haunting involving disturbing secrets, tragic histories, and a supernatural entity that won’t stay hidden.

We’re breaking down the story, the characters, the strange events, and that ending. Who is the Medicine Seller? What exactly is the terrifying Karakasa? What’s really happening inside the palace? And what does this bizarre supernatural mystery mean?

We’ll discuss the film’s gorgeous animation, unsettling atmosphere, Japanese folklore influences, disturbing themes, and the moments that left us scratching our heads.

SPOILERS AHEAD! We’re getting into the story and ending, so watch the movie before listening if you want to experience the mystery for yourself.
