Full Plot Details

A pioneer of a man convinces his family to take advantage of news of a road soon to be built through an area of the country that can be had for next to nothing. He, his aging, but wise father, his loving and loyal wife, along with a slow-to-persuade son and a divorced daughter with toddler in hand who also happens to be the narrator, bravely move out to this new space and open a bed and breakfast. They make the place everything anyone could want, as they have so much time to work on it, since no one is making reservations to stay there. Eventually, the customers come...but each one dies while in their room and the family is trying to get rid of the evidence a.s.a.p so as not to ruin their reputation before they even get up and running. One thing leads to another and the bodies have to be moved.

Movie Reviews

TheMovieReport.com - 10/10 by Michael DequinaLove it or hate it, such a feat of highly demented cinematic imagination simply must be seen.
Movie Chambers - 9/10 by Paul ChambersPalatable in small doses, "The Happiness of the Katakuris" just doesn't have enough to be wholly satisfying to cult film fans. This surreal horror-comedy tries very hard, but ultimately grates on your nerves.
MovieMartyr.com - 9/10 by Jeremy HeilmanKatakuris doesn't disappoint, except in that it provides pretty much exactly what one would expect from a Miike musical.
Combustible Celluloid - 8/10 by Jeffrey M. AndersonMiike is also counting on the fact that even if you've seen his other films, they won't help you one whit.
Slant Magazine - 8/10 by Ed GonzalezThough uneven, this genre-defying creation's spectacle is still never less than awesome to behold.
Film Threat - 8/10 by Eric CamposI swear, you'd think the Katakuris were Fraggles. Any kind of situation is prime reason for these people to burst out into a full-blown musical number...
L.A. Weekly - 8/10 by Paul MalcolmAn amusing scenario, until even Miike seems to lose his taste for the oddly sweet concoction and allows the film to drift aimlessly to a rainbow-hued finale.
eye WEEKLY - 7/10 by Jason AndersonAnyone with a weakness for song-and-dance dementia on the level of Forbidden Zone and Cannibal! The Musical will find all this irresistible.
TheMovieChicks.com - 7/10 by Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann PaloneThe Katakuris may not be your typical innkeepers, but the family that sings together and buries dead bodies together, stays together...this is hilarious, macabre, and entertaining.
TV Guide - 7/10 by Ken FoxIt is enormously entertaining, and it marks a refreshing change of pace for the versatile Miike.
