There's a good chance John Carpenter got a lot of ideas for The Fog from this movie

The Living Skeleton (1968) is a Japanese horror film that I recently watched on a random streaming service. The storyline follows a young lady who moves to a town that is haunted. As she researches the events she discovers the tale of a ship that was sunk by local pirates.

This movie is directed by Hiroki Matsuno (Sword: Flower-Strewn Path of Courage) and stars Asao Koike (Throne of Blood), Nobuo Kaneko (Ikiru), Kô Nishimura (Yojimbo) and Kikko Matsuoka (Black Lizard).

Watching this there's a good chance John Carpenter got a lot of ideas for The Fog from this movie. This movie is made pretty clever with some fantastic cinematography and some fun underwater scenes, especially the skeletons. The skeletons looked like sugar skulls. The bats in this reminded me of a Vincent Price movie and the corpses are well created. Kikko Matsuoka delivers a strong performance as the main character and the last 15 is entertaining.

Overall this is a worthwhile addition to the horror genre and a fun watch for fans who enjoyed The Fog. I would score this a solid 6.5-7/10 and recommend seeing it once.
