CATCH A CLASSIC
Kwaidan
TCM, 1 a.m. Monday
You’ll want to set your DVR or stay up late to catch this lovely and eerie Oscar-nominated (Best Foreign Language Film) 1965 Japanese ghost-story anthology (its spooky tales might have you putting on all the lights and unable to fall asleep, anyway, even though it runs around three hours). The four unrelated tales — “The Black Hair,” “The Woman of the Snow,” “Hoichi the Earless” and “In a Cup of Tea” — come from Japanese folklore and are haunting not only in their content but also in their presentation; Kwaidan’s beautiful cinematography, and use of color and sound, almost makes the creepy moments more unnerving when they do arise. — Jeff Pfeiffer
