(1961) Yoshiko Fujishiro, Sentarô Fushimi, Jûshirô Konoe, Yumiko Marhara. A demented samurai warrior seeks to reunite with his estranged wife who left him because of his murderous ways. Complications arise, though, with the appearance of a revenge-seeking ghost! This is a lavish chiller with many fine scenes. The first ghost scene is quite memorable. The script touches on everything from supernatural horror to prostitution. Based on the play Tokaido Yotsuya Kaidan. English subtitles. Widescreen, from 35mm.
