In Japanese Shinto-religion, they are water spirits who pull little children into the water and drown them, and attack and fight travelers. They also attack animals, including horses. They cannot live for long on the land, for they must always keep their heads wet. They have long hair, the body of a tortoise, scaly limbs, and an ape face. The Kappas feed themselves with cucumbers and blood, and use cucumbers to travel on them; these cucumbers fly like dragonflies. Kappas are very intelligent and can be propitiated by humans. They can be befriended by wise men to whom they will teach the art of setting bones. They may once have been wise monkeys.

Also Fritz, kappas had this concave area on the tops of their heads, within the tonsure, which was filled with water when not submerged. And when out of water they had to keep that water in there, so they were pretty defeatable by like a firm nudge or some bumpy ground.

Robot Monsters! They're showing this film at my local cool arthouse cinema (the Astor) in a few months time, a double with Plan 9 from Outer Space.

I so have to go see both.

As well you should...

Aw, poor Andre. For those who aren't WWF fans, the late Frenchman above was 7'4" and weighed over 500 lbs/nearly 40 stone.

Martin: That should read "For those that are neither WWF nor Princess Bride fans..."

― Sarah McLUsky (coco), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 11:54 (twenty-three years ago)

Protecting the city of Los Angeles, of course.

I'd like to see you do any better.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 14:25 (twenty-three years ago)

I would pet the kitty into submission.

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 14:26 (twenty-three years ago)

i see it as Gareth has not even noticed the cat and is just 'head-dancing' to Stereolab again

― stevem (blueski), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 14:44 (twenty-three years ago)
