I've been wanting to watch this movie for a while now....

Anime-Legion released the movie, other groups released it, but this is the version I would recommend:
http://anime-legion.elandal.or...akurenbo.movie.torrent (http://anime-legion.elandal.org:8001/files/a-l.kakurenbo.movie.torrent)

"This was a dismal town. There were spaces among the ruined and chaotic structures of the town. When a light turned on in the alley, there was a play only children could do, and the world only children could enter, beyond the alley. Children knew they could do a forbidden play with strange figured creatures called "Oni". The play was called "A play of Okotoyo-sama", namely, "Kakurenbo" (hide-and-seek). Whenever children played Kakurenbo, they disappeared one after another into the blinds of the buildings.

In those days, a boy, Hikora, was looking for his little sister who had disappeared while she had been playing Kakurenbo. Then, Yaimao, Noshiga, Tachiji, Suku, uncanny twins of Inmu and Yanku, and a girl helped him. When they began to play "Kakurenbo", four strange figured "Oni" chased them; they were "Abura Tori" (Oil Taker), "Ko Tori (Child Taker), "Chi Tori" (Blood Taker), and "Kimo Tori" (Liver Taker) respectively. The children wanted to know about the play, about the town, and about the world. The truth hidden in this play gradually became clear."

I saw this when it was on Adult Swim a few weeks ago. It's ok...nothing special. A creepy halloweenish type story, and really nice art (the whole thing is cel-shaded). So for that alone, I guess it's worth your time. I really liked how the kept all the kids masked. Gave it a great atmosphere. What I thought was best about it, though, is that some cool VAs are in this (both English and Japanese). Most notably, Junko Takeuchi (Naruto) as Hikora, the main character.

Sean Schemmel (Goku from DBZ) is in the English version, which I thought was really funny.

Thanks Bud for the torrent, now I can get rid of the Russian fansub I originally downloaded from animeyume.
