Audition (1999)

Published: April 17, 2024, 9 a.m.

Tonight, join the AHH Crew as they discuss Takashi Miike's Audition!

Considered by many to be the best Japanese horror films of all-time, Audition follows\xa0a widower who stages a phony audition to meet a potential new romantic partner. After interviewing several women, Aoyama becomes interested in Asami, whose dark past affects their relationship.\xa0

Audition has been cited as a huge influence on the "torture porn" subgenre of horror, and is a personal favorite of many iconic horror filmmakers including Eli Roth, Rob Zombie & Quentin Tarantino.

But first: breaking down the trailer for MAXXXINE, the 1999 Academy Award winner for Best Picture THE MUMMY is returning to theaters this month & Gillian Anderson is open to returning for the upcoming X-FILES reboot from Ryan Coogler.
