Plots(1)

Two gentlemen from the city go out hunting. After getting lost on a mountain road they found a cheap restaurant. But everything is not as it seems. This is the 1994 version of "Chuumon no Ooi Ryouriten" (The Restaurant of Many Orders). This famous Japanese short story had already been animated twice, once in 1958 with puppets, and once in 1991 in silent-movie stop-motion mode. (Magic Bus)
