"How am I..... alive?!"

I just audibly gasped and exclaimed ‘oh my god’ at the final shot alone on my couch. 

And for those like myself who saw the overall overwhelmingly boring remake, what’s funny here is that Cage was honestly a perfect casting decision, and this film is in fact no less goofy and campy. But the sense of the occult is profound in this film, and always willing to take surprising turns. 

Lastly, add this to the subversive musical canon. This soundtrack is as good as I’ve heard tale of for so long.

The most surprising and sincere animated film since Ernest and Celestine. What a revelation, and what an insane prospect to distribute in the US, but let's just imagine that children aren't fucking morons for a second and give them credit for being able to understand real nuance in life and death.

The most profoundly surreal studio film of the last decade still holds up.
