DESCRIPTION:

Teeming with creepy atmosphere and unforgettably macabre images, director Masaki Kobayashi's tetralogy of ghost tales is a classic film of the supernatural. The five frightening stories--derived from Japanese folk talks--involve a woman whose love for her samurai husband lasts beyond death, a love-starved snow spirit, a demon-fighting priest, and a haunted cup of tea.
