Blind Woman's Curse
Directed by Teruo Ishii
Produced by Nikkatsu Corporation, Dainichi-Eihai
A lurid, surreal revenge tale blending yakuza crime drama with supernatural horror, driven by graphic violence and the uncanny presence of a vengeful black cat.
Akemi is a dragon tattooed leader of the Tachibana Yakuza clan. In a duel with a rival gang Akemi slashes the eyes of an opponent and a black cat appears, to lap the blood from the gushing wound. The cat along with the eye-victim go on to pursue Akemi’s gang in revenge, leaving a trail of dead Yakuza girls, their dragon tattoos skinned from their bodies.
