A double bill from Kiyoshi Kurosawa that highlights his skills at onscreen unease. Serpent’s Path, from 1998, follows a minor gangster’s blackly comic crusade of revenge for the death of his daughter as the body count mounts. The recent 45-minute Chime chills à la his classics Pulse or Cure as a cooking-school instructor finds himself surrounded by sudden acts of mayhem. A master at work.
