Guest Daisho2004 Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 Blind Woman's Curse: JFYI this movie is being released on 5/8/07 DeepDiscount has it listed for $13.37. I would like to hear from some more people if its worth picking up. Stunning 70's cult siren Meiko Kaji, star of the LADY SNOWBLOOD, FEMALE CONVICT SCORPION and STRAY CAT ROCK films, blasts off in her first headlining role! A novice yakuza boss in early 20th century Japan, she must defend her clan against a vengeful blind swordswoman (Hoki Tokuda), her bizarre hunchback servant (Tatsumi Hijikata), as well as villain Toru Abe's gang of bloodthirsty killers. Director Teruo Ishii (FEMALE YAKUZA TALE, HORROR OF MALFORMED MEN) delivers a bizarre hybrid of Japanese horror and yakuza genres featuring a nomadic terror carnival, girls skinned alive for their tattooed epidermis, and a succession of brutal swordfights. Actress Kaji offers prime evidence of why she became the top female action star of 1970's Japan. One of the key cult films from Nikkatsu, the studio that also released the unforgettable, offbeat hit TOKYO DRIFTER. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest inchilottaP Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 It's bizarre. Watching it a second time and being prepared for all the weirdness helped me enjoy it a bit more. Could have used a bit more action but it's still pretty enjoyable if your a Meiko Kaji fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
