From Wikipedia:

Pitfall

(1962, 35mm, 97m, Japanese w/English subtitles) w/Hisashi Igawa, Sumie Sasaki, Sen Yano. Teshigahara’s debut feature is a wandering portrait of a miner (Igawa) and his young son, who happen upon a deserted town. There he is followed by a mysterious man wearing a white suit and white gloves. The surreal Pitfall questions whether truth matters, in this life or the next.

(1966, 35mm, 124m, Japanese w/English subtitles) w/Tatsuya Nakadai, Mikijirô Hira, Kyôko Kishida. This existential science-fiction triumph sees Okuyama (Nakadai) horribly disfigured in a laboratory explosion. His life upended, he learns of a procedure that will replace his face with that of a stranger—leading him to question his identity and fall prey to his darkest inclinations.
