House, aka Hausu (Ep. 011)

The MacGuffin Guild

On this episode of the MacGuffin Guild, we're gonna travel to our crazy Aunt's country home in House, also known as Hausu.
This 1977 Japanese Horror Comedy starring Kimiko Ikegami, Miki Jingo and Kumiko Ohba among others. Directed by Nobuhiko Obayashi.
We're gonna talk about the films connection to Jaws, using humor to cope with unimaginable horror, naked swimming and the Zolly shot.
We'll discuss the secret of filmmaking and how rules are made to be broken as well as the atomic bomb and its devastating impact.
We'll talk about flying heads, bitting butts, naughty Jaws and vomit water as well as the original concept for the unmade 16th Godzilla film and diabetes. We'll also discuss what you would do "to stay alive".
I'm Pat Dougherty and as always I'll be joined by my fellow MacGuffin's Justin Jones and Mike Antonio. Our theme song was written and performed by Jordan Vincent. House is calling you to come back home... so gather up your friends and return to House (also known as
Hausu).
