"It's A Mixture Of High And Low Art Very Reminiscent Of His Masterpiece Audition In Both Structure And Style." - Fangoria
 
An actor stars in a stage version of a ghost story with his new lover. However, as they delve deeper into their respective performances, the line between fantasy and reality becomes obscured until the murderous, vengeful themes of the play bleed into their own relationship. Originates from the 1825 kabuki play Tōkaidō Yotsuya kaidan. [Synopsis © Scream Factory] (94 min.  Japanese with English subtitles)
