A blind monk is killed in a cowardly manner by a samurai lord. When the monk’s sister is ordered to become the lord’s concubine, she commits suicide and transfers her grudge to their black cat, who assumes the human form of one of the lord’s ladies-in-waiting and begins to wreak havoc around the castle court. The lord’s machiavellian right-hand man (Rokko Toura, Kuroneko) and a young swordsman (Kojiro Hongo, The Bride from Hades) combine forces to solve the mystery and stop the supernatural menace. Based on an 18th-century legend, this is one of the finest and most atmospheric examples of the Japanese ghost cat genre, which combines motifs similar to Western werewolf tales with demonic possession.

STARRING: Kojiro Hongo, Naomi Kobayashi, Mitsuyo Kamei
