We've written about composer Shunsuke Kikuchi and his music before, for his fine work on "Goke" and "Gamera" and and his massive portfolio of Kamen Rider, Ultraman, and Dragon Ball Z credits! The man is a musical messiah, and "Kaidan Hebi-Onna" is no exception!
In a chestnut shell, here's the deal. You've got this big shot dude, and his son, shown here, who are both, and I don't know any better way to say it, they're just a couple of rich pricks!!
They take advantage of a beautiful young woman, who has some hookups in an alternate glorified serpent universe, and end up paying the ultimate price. You know, the kind of thing you would want to happen to a couple of jerks like that!!!
The female Japanese version of Jimi Hendrix works out some deep funk on traditional Japanese instrument, 'The Shamisen!'
They're lookin' for snakes, okay I got that, but am I the only one who thinks something looks just a little bit weird here??!!
Actually the slimeball son and his old man got off pretty easy, I think she left them their souls!!
This soundtrack utilizes some cool electric guitar, and music toward the end that has a distinctive Spaghetti Western feel to it!! Theremin, harmonica, and more!!! Cool stuff!!
