This is a Japanese horror film that really holds your attention. The story revolves around a Samurai who rescues a spirit known as a Tanuki.
As a result of his kindness the spirit vows to watch over him, and it's a good thing because the samurai's son is planning to murder him for his money.
There is a lot of bizarre creatures in this film and all are, of course from Japanese culture. The acting is fine for this kind of movie and comes across as very believable.
It's in Japanese language, but it does have subtitles and the print quality is very good indeed. The black and white photography comes across as moody. It's a quick moving film at only 55 minutes and for fans of Japanese horror, this is a MUST see.
I don't know why this film is known by so many different titles, but no matter what the title, the film is very good. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!
