Nanto's Halloween Triple Feature (part 1)

This is one of those mini-movies that were shown as part of the incredibly successful Toei Manga Matsuri (Cartoon Festival), although by this time they had changed the name to Toei Anime Fair. I may not be able to subtitle all 432 episodes of Kitaro in my lifetime, but it does seem possible that I might be able to do all of the movies.
Interestingly all three of the GeGeGe movies that were made in the 1990s are sort of remakes of stories that were done in the 1968 series, but apart from a few minor details are very different from the TV episodes they are based on. This one is sort of a mashup of Ghost Train (episode 7) and Great Yokai War (episodes 10-11), but it’s really almost nothing like those actual episodes.
The vampire in this movie is voiced by one of my all-time favorite voice actors, Kaneto Shiozawa.
GeGeGe no Kitaro is one of my joint projects with Hokuto no Gun. Check out their site here: http://www.hokutonogun.com/
I’m assuming all the GeGeGe no Kitaro movies must have aired on Wowwow at some point. If anyone could hook me up with HD captures of any or all of the movies (I only have the first one in HD) I would really appreciate it.
