Never After Dark

In this chilling ghost story that deftly reimagines Japanese horror conventions, a wandering medium, Airi (Moeka Hoshi, Shōgun) spends her life guiding restless spirits out of the world of the living. Summoned to an isolated country house, she comes face to face with a grotesque apparition with powers that defy Airi’s experience. As she digs deeper into the house’s past, a secret comes to light — and Airi finds herself hunted by a far more unpredictable force. For the first time, her greatest adversary is not the supernatural, but the living.  (Dir. by Dave Boyle, 2026, Japan, in Japanese with English subtitles, 105 mins., Not Rated)
