Onibaba (1964)




In medieval Japan, a woman and her daughter-in-law make their living by killing soldiers and selling their armours. When an acquaintance returns from the war, the older woman wants to keep her daughter away from him, and the scare tactics she uses backfire.

An operatic, poetic, creepy folk tale with stark imagery.
